Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year and the Thelma R. Salinas STEM Early College High School Social Work page. I look forward to this new school year and working together with students and families. We continue to pride ourselves on the success of our students at STEM Early College High School with the professional relationships that we built among students, teachers, and families. We continue to have a sense of commitment and are driven by the future endeavors our students and campus will continue to succeed in achieving. The main goal is to maintain a strong foundation with the families and students so they continue to grow socially and emotionally, into responsible individuals in a safe and trusted environment.

As the Thelma R. Salinas STEM Early College High School Social Worker, I will continue to serve as the connection between our families, students, and teachers so we may grow together and strengthen their skills in becoming college, career and life ready. Please take time to explore this page, extremely helpful resources throughout the community and among the La Joya ISD school district offers. Important resources such as Parent/Guardian rights under "Every Student Succeeds Act-Section-1116, mental health, prevention/intervention on suicide, health/wellness, tobacco/vaping, emergency resources in the Rio Grande Valley and homeless education resources." Thank You for allowing me to help your students and families!
