Join us in celebrating #NSBW23 March 6-10 to highlight the importance of #schoolbreakfast and the critical role school nutrition professionals play in helping children succeed in and out of the classroom. Studies show that students who eat #schoolbreakfast reach higher levels of achievement in math and reading, score higher on standardized tests and have better concentration and memory. Let's ensure our students have school breakfast.

March 4th is Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day, an opportunity to thank the dedicated La Joya ISD employees who keep our schools, libraries, gymnasiums and offices running smoothly. Maintenance workers, who include plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, carpenters, custodians and groundskeepers. We also extend our appreciation to the paraprofessionals employed in the department.
Maintenance department employees fix and maintain facilities, machines and mechanical equipment. They often carry out many different tasks in a single day. They could work at any number of indoor and outdoor locations, including in less-than-ideal weather conditions such as extreme cold or heat.
Take a moment to express gratitude to all who ensure our buildings are safe and in working order!
La Joya ISD Students Recognized for 50,000+ Acts of Kindness
Students, faculty, and administrators at La Joya ISD have been honored by EduGuide, a national non-profit, for extraordinary steps to support their school community.
La Joya students at four high schools that participate in EduGuide’s online curriculum have now completed more than 50,000 acts of mentoring, advising, and encouragement called EduGuide Challenges. Through these challenges, students learn practical social, educational, and career skills in a hands-on way that benefits both the student and those they choose to help. Research shows that the more EduGuide activities students complete, the more their grades and test scores tend to improve.
⏰ Friendly Reminder! NO CLASSES tomorrow Friday, March 3. We will be having an Inservice Day for staff. Classes will resume on Monday, March 6, 2023.
