💖 A Night of Giving at La Joya ISD! 💖
Last night, November 19, 2025, our students proudly took part in the La Joya ISD Food Drive for our community. It was a truly humbling and inspiring experience for everyone involved.

The presence and support of our coaches, teachers, and our principal, Mr. Eduardo “Eddie” Flores, along with our amazing parents, made all the difference. Their leadership and encouragement helped create a meaningful, student-centered opportunity focused on service, gratitude, and compassion.

There is always joy in giving—and last night reminded us how important it is to be thankful not only for the food we can share, but for the blessing of coming together to make an impact. ❤️🤝

Proud of our Coyotes for leading with heart and serving with purpose! 🐺✨GOOO COYOTES!
