🌟 Hispanic Heritage Month Shout-Out! 🌟

Today, I want to give a special shout-out to Karen Santos, our Administrative Associate at the Garcia Center! ❤️

Karen has been part of the Garcia Center family for the past four years, serving in different roles and always bringing her dedication, kindness, and willingness to help wherever she is needed.

One thing that truly stands out about Karen is that she is always willing to help others. Whether it’s helping a coworker, supporting our students and families, or simply stepping in wherever she is needed, she does it with a caring heart and a positive attitude.

It has been wonderful watching her grow and become such an important part of our team. We are grateful for everything she does for the Garcia Center and our community.

Karen, thank you for all that you do and for being such a valued part of our Garcia Center family! We are blessed to have you on our team. 🫶🏽❤️
