Celebrating excellence on wheels! 🎮🚌 Students with perfect attendance and outstanding grades earned a well-deserved class period on the game bus. Hard work, dedication, and showing up every day pays off!
Shoutout to Mrs. Vanessa Vallejo, our Principles of Health Science teacher, as she prepares to compete in the Spa Girl Tri on May 9! 🏊♀️🚴♀️🏃♀️
Mrs. Vallejo shared that her personal goal is to prove to herself that she can do hard things. While she has completed 5Ks and 10Ks before, this will be her first triathlon and her first race since having her youngest child. As a mom of three and only 9 months postpartum, she has balanced training, work, motherhood, and learning to give herself grace throughout the process.
She hopes to inspire both her children at home and her students at school by showing that when you put your mind toward something, anything is possible. Through early mornings, long workouts, and even unpredictable Texas weather, her discipline and dedication have continued to shine.
Good luck, Mrs. Vallejo! Your Harlandale family is cheering you on every step of the way! 💙
