Today our Assistant Principal, Ms. Y. Gonzalez was put in “lockup” for an incredible cause! In order to bail her out, staff pulled together to donate and raise “bail money” in support of Smiles from Heaven to support Childhood Cancer Awareness. 🚨
We are so proud of our team for stepping up to help Ms. Gonzalez get out of “UISD LOCKUP” as well as help all the families that benefit from this amazing cause! 🫶🏻
Our families and students can still contribute to the cause by returning the donation cards that were sent home until October 8th! 💛🎗️
