Sometimes the sweetest gestures come straight from the heart. 💙

Robert Vela High School student Brittany Cortazar made goodie bags for our cafeteria staff simply to show how much she appreciates them. Our cafeteria team cares for students every day, and Brittany wanted to make sure they felt appreciated in return.

Thank you, Brittany, for your thoughtful act of kindness. And to our cafeteria staff: we appreciate all you do! 🖤💙
