🌟✨ It's National School Counseling Week! 🌟✨
Here at La Joya ISD, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt appreciation for each and every one of our incredible counselors. 💖 From guiding our students through academic challenges to providing invaluable support for their emotional well-being, our counselors truly go above and beyond every single day. 🙌 Their dedication and compassion make a world of difference in the lives of our students and our entire school community. 🎓💙 Let's take this week to celebrate and honor these amazing individuals who play such a vital role in shaping the future.

Please check out the district calendar as it's been updated to reflect the following:
🏫 Regular School Day on Friday, February 9, 2024
❌ No school for students on Monday, February 12, 2024 (Staff Inservice Day)
👩🏫 Staff will be at work on both Friday, February 9, 2024, and Monday, February 12, 2024.
On February 2, 2024, students in Ms.Y.Treviños. Ms.J.Lopez & Ms.B.Rios class actively participated in a TELPAS activity.
They engaged in reading, writing, listening, and speaking exercises by comparing two stories. Additionally, they showcased procedural writing skills by explaining "How to Prepare a Pizza" and then followed through by creating and baking their own pizzas. The students also independently practiced basic life skills, such as washing pans and utensils. This hands-on learning experience not only improved language proficiency but also developed practical life skills in an engaging and interactive manner
¡Recordatorio!
