Today, we want to express our deep appreciation for Director of Migrant and Bilingual Education, Eric Larez, a dedicated leader, mentor, and friend. Eric's secretary shared the following:
"Eric Larez is a dedicated, motivated, and knowledgeable leader who believes that knowledge is power! Leadership is a crucial factor in all he does. In the short time he has been part of our team, he has accomplished a lot and continues to strive for more, such as a successful summer and afterschool program."
"Eric sets high expectations for us as staff, but also for our students, and he leads by example. Eric wants the best for our students and families and will go above and beyond for them. You will always find him having a great time cooking or showing off the planetarium during our PAC meetings."
"It is one thing for Eric to be a boss, but being a mentor and a leader come naturally to him. We are proud to have him as a boss, mentor, and friend all in one. He is a friend that is there when you need a helping hand, words of encouragement, or a ride from the hospital. He doesn't just see the employee; he sees the person and treats you like family."
Thank you, Eric, for being an incredible leader, mentor, and friend. We are truly blessed to have you as part of our team. Your dedication and caring leadership make all the difference.
