Las Animas School District HECTOR of the Week award winners are, from left: Junior high — Naomi Burquez. Naomi is an outstanding student. She focuses on whatever activity she is engaged in. She has a great attitude and is always coachable. She works very hard in class to produce the best product possible. She goes above and beyond to show Excellence in everything she does. We are very proud of how Naomi shows HECTOR in Las Animas Junior High. High school — David Steward. He’s always a joy to have in class. He tells it like it is and asks when he needs help. We can always count on David to be honest and we love that about him. Staff — Elisha Garcia. Her impact on our school is immeasurable. Without her, I wonder how smoothly everything would run. Elisha consistently has a thoughtful answer and is ready for every question posed, demonstrating her deep understanding and commitment. Her unwavering dedication to the staff, students, and the entire district makes a significant difference. Elisha is a source of support for everyone, and her contributions deserve recognition.Susan Waring / Las Animas School District
