Rio Grande City CISD Board
of Trustees recently named
Mr. Alfredo Garcia as Interim
Superintendent during a special
Board Meeting held on May 25,
2016. He officially began his new
post on Wednesday, June 1, 2016.
Garcia is long time educator and
has served the district in various
capacities. He looks forward
to bringing his experience and
knowledge to this new position that
will be beneficial to the students
and staff of the district.
“I want to return to the basics
of education, the fundamentals, I
am a firm believer that education
starts at the elementary level,” said
Interim Superintendent Garcia.
“Our focus needs to be at that level
in order to develop a strong and
solid foundation for our students so
that they have a smooth transition
from one grade to another.”
Garcia received his Bachelor
of Science in Bilingual Education
from Texas A & I Kingsville and
shortly after earned his Master
of Arts Bilingual Bi-Cultural
degree from the University of
Texas Pan American. He holds
a mid-management certification
and a superintendent certification
from the University of Texas Pan
American.
He began his career at RGCCISD
in 1978 as an elementary teacher
and after seven years moved up
to assistant principal. In 1987, he
accepted the principal position at
Ringgold Elementary and went
on to serve in that same capacity
at two other elementary schools
such as John & Olive Hinojosa
Elementary and North Grammar
Elementary.
After eight years as an
elementary principal he moved
on to Ringgold Middle School to
serve as principal. Garcia was there
for five years before he was asked
to take the helm at Rio Grande
City High School as principal. In
2002, Garcia accepted a position as
Administrative Officer for Program
and Accountability and was
charged with assuring all district
programs were aligned with the
district’s plan and in compliance
with the Texas Education Agency
requirements.
Garcia is firm believer in the
education of all students and has
dedicated his life to the field. When
he became a district administrator
he wanted to continue educating
students and began a second career
in higher education. He became an
adjunct professor at the University
of Texas Rio Grande Valley-Starr
County Campus and South Texas
College.
“I want the students and parents
to know that I am student-oriented,
I’m here for the students and I have
an open door policy,” said Interim
Superintendent Garcia. “Whatever
concern that they might have,
they can always come talk to me.
There is always a solution to every
particular situation and as long as
we work together we will do well
for the students of the district.”
Garcia seeks the support of the
district’s employees in order to

I’m free
Don’t grieve for me for now I’m free, I took his hand when I
heard Him call. If my parting has left a void, then �ill it with
remembered joy. My life’s been full, I savored much: good
friends, good times, a loved one’s touch, friendship shared,
a laugh, a kiss. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, don’t
lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and
share with me... God wanted me now, He set me free.

A Fallen Limb
A limb has fallen from the
family tree. I keep hearing a
voice that says, “Grieve not for
me, remember the best times. The
laughter, the song, the good life I
lived while I was strong. Continue
my heritage, I’m counting on
you. Keep smiling and surely
the sun will shine through. My
mind is at ease, my soul is at
rest. Remembering all how I truly
was blessed. Continue traditions,
no matter how small. Go on with
your life don’t worry about falls. I
miss you all dearly, so keep up
your chin until the day comes and
we’re together again.”

“Miraculous Prayer”
Dear Sacred Heart of Jesus, in the
past I have asked for favors. This
time I ask you this very special
one (mention favor). Take it, Dear
Jesus, and place it within your
own heart, where your Father sees
it. Then, in your merciful eyes it
will become your favor, not mine.
Amen.
Say this prayer for three days,

will be granted.

The Starr County Retired School Employees
Association awarded four scholarships to
graduating high school seniors during a
meeting on Thursday 05-19-2016 at the
Workforce Building on the South Texas
College campus. S.C.R.S.E.A. scholarship
committee chairperson Lydia Lopez,
presented the four recipients; one from each of
the four high schools in Starr County. The four
students were: Julissa Marie Garza (R.G.C.),
Juan Anaya (La Grulla), Dilia Salinas (Roma),
and Alejandra Guevara (San Isidro). These
four graduates wrote excellent essays on their
goals to continue their education.
MR. GARCIA
Continue from Front Page
provide full focus onto the students.
He states that if everyone works
together to provide all students
the fundamentals of education
then the district will be extremely
successful.
Interim Superintendent Garcia
is ready to begin his journey in his
new position and is certain that he is
well prepared due to his educational
background and experience. He is
extremely optimistic and excited
for what the future holds for the
district’s students and staff.
C.A.R.G.O.bags4FosterYouth
is a volunteer based plan to collect
and distribute donated, NEW OR
GENTLY USED traveling gear
for transitioning foster youth.
C.A.R.G.O. stands for ‘Cases
Are Rare Gifts Offered’ to foster
children.
Imagine that you are forced to
travel suddenly to an unknown
place and instead of luggage, you
are given a black trash bag to
carry your valuables in; makes one
wonder ‘Am I going to be cared for
in this new place, will it be a safe
haven for me?’ It is heartbreaking
to receive or release children with
black garbage bags as suitcases
and this practice needs to end.
The trauma of removal and the
psychological damage on young
children who are forced to carry
their life’s worth in a trash bags
is an irreparable pain that can be
avoided.
We want to eliminate the use of
trash bags as suitcases for children
in care and restore a child’s dignity
during what is absolutely the most
difficult time of their precious lives.
We also want to bring awareness
and highlight the idea of ‘It takes a
village to raise a child’ and we are
all responsible for assisting those
who are less fortunate.
‘Dignity’ & ‘Journey’ cases
distribution began April 1st, 2016
and we are gearing up for our next
phase of distribution ‘Care’ cases
coming this August.
Active Foster parents with
children in care, kinship caregivers,
foster youth aged 18 and former
foster youth are encouraged to
contact us to receive their free bag
956-735-3189.
To fulfill this mission requires,
dedication, commitment and
action. We are asking for your help
getting the word out, pledging your
commitment to foster children
valley wide, and getting the public
involved in a big way. Please
commit to donating to this cause,
share our initiative on your social
media accounts and get involved in
this special service to community
unity

Rio Grande City High School’s Migrant Club Holds Migrant Banquet
On April 21, 2016, Rio Grande
City High School held their
Migrant Banquet at the Rio High
Library. The banquet is held
every year in order to recognize
and celebrate the migrants for
their hard work, commitment,
and challenges they face when
going out to work in different
areas.
This year the Migrant Club
had a guest speaker who is a
Rio Grande City High School
graduate. Mr. Jose Corona
graduated from Rio High in 1977
and was a migrant worker from
his school days all the way to
some of his college years.
He is a Registered Radiologic
Technologist and a Registered
Magnetic Resonance Technologist
with the American Registry of
Radiologic Technologists. He
attended St Edwards University,
Austin, TX, Texas Southmost
College,
Brownsville,
TX,
Baylor
University
Medical
Center, Dallas, TX, Radiology
Program Graduate 1982, where
he was awarded the Clinical
Achievement Award, University
of Texas Health Science Center
- Dallas, TX where he completed
the MRI program.
He currently lives and works
in Corpus Christi, Texas, where
he is employed in the medical
field as an MRI Technologist at
Corpus Christi Medical Center.
He spoke to the students about
growing up in Rio Grande City
and the difficulty of going out to
the fields working while picking
asparagus. He also mentioned
the importance of staying in
school and about the different
options they have. “Don’t just
choose one field in that area,
that field might have another
option so try to advance as
much as you can, don’t give
up”, said Corona. He motivated
the students and even showed
them a ledger his father kept of
the days and hours he used to
work. The migrant students were
very interested and asked many
questions that are beneficial for
their future.
The migrant students worked
diligently to make the banquet a
great success. They would like to
thank their sponsors, Mrs. M.C.
Lopez, Mr. Joseph Ellert, along
with their staff members.
They would also like to
thank the Librarian, Mrs.
Velma Guerrero and her staff,
Mr. Cortinas and the Rio High
Jazz Band, the cafeteria staff
for catering, and a special thank
you to Mr. Joel Salinas, Director
of Federal Programs, and Mr.
Ricardo Saenz for their support
and commitment to the migrant
program.

DPS Urges Texans to Prepare as Hurricane Season Begins
What’s in that tube of green leaves?
A few years
ago I built
a
cement
block storage
building.
On
several
occasions
since then, as
I’ve
opened
the door, a tube of green leaves
has fallen from its location at the
top of the door. I’ve been puzzled
by the green tubes.
As I’ve now discovered, the
leaf tubes are made by leafcutter
bees. There are several species
but all resemble honey bees in
appearance and are about the
same size or a bit smaller. The
wings are clear or smoky and the
bodies dark with perhaps a green
or blue metallic sheen.
Unlike many bees, the
leafcutters lead a solitary life.
They have no hive or complex
social life.
The female uses her mandibles
to cut circular pieces from leaves
and then connects them to make
a tube about 3/8 inch in diameter.
You may have noticed plant
leaves with neat rounded portions
removed. From these pieces
the tube is built in a knothole,
a pipe, a crevice above a door,
or, occasionally a hole in the
ground.
The tube, several inches long,
is divided into cells into which
the female bee places pollen and
nectar. In each cell, she then lays
a single egg. The egg hatches into
a larva which feeds on the stored
food and then pupates. During
pupation, the caterpillar like larva
is transformed into a new adult
leafcutter bee.
The leafcutter bees are
abundant which is fortunate for
us because they’re pollinators
of many plants which are of
economic significance. The only
minor problem for us is that the
females can sting. Being stung is,
however, a truly rare occurrence.
Most bees collect pollen on
their hind legs; leafcutter bees
collect pollen on the fuzzy ventral
(bottom) side of their abdomens.
They collect the pollen for their
own consumption and to place
in the cells of the leaf-tubes
they built. In the process, they
pollinate the flowers they visit.
You can attract leafcutter bees
to your garden by building them
a house. Take a log or post or
wood block, about 10 inches
thick would be perfect, drill
some approximately 3/8 inch
holes and place it in a solid, not
swinging, location somewhere
in the garden. The leafcutters are
wonderful pollinators and as you
may have heard, other pollinators
such as honeybees are in trouble.
We’re losing many pollinators
and we need to help those we can.
We tend to think that all
creatures of any type, such
as bees, are much alike. The
leafcutter bees remind us that it’s
not true. Within what seem to be
very similar groups of animals
there may be considerable
diversity. That diversity is what
yields heathy ecological systems
and fascinating observations for
us.
The Texas Department of
Public Safety (DPS) is reminding
residents that hurricane season
began June 1st and continues
through Nov. 30. The department
also is warning Texans to
not delay in developing their
emergency plans in advance of
possible hurricanes or tropical
storms.
“Many of our communities
have already been impacted
by severe weather events this
year,” said Texas Governor Greg
Abbott. “As we enter the 2016
hurricane season, I urge residents
to start preparing now for these
possible storms – if they have
not done so yet – and to make
it a practice to monitor weather
conditions and to heed directives
from their local officials.”
“It is critical that Texans have
an established hurricane plan and
emergency kit in place before
a hurricane or tropical storm
ever forms or enters the Gulf
of Mexico,” said DPS Director
Steven McCraw. “Advance
preparation is a critical gamechanger in helping protect
lives and property, and we urge
residents to remind their family,
friends and neighbors of this lifesaving step.”
All Atlantic and Gulf of
Mexico coastal areas are subject
to hurricanes or tropical storms. It
is possible for a storm to severely
impact our state, even prior to or
without making direct landfall in
Texas. Additionally, the rainbands
associated with a tropical system
have an extremely wide reach,
so monitoring changing weather
conditions during hurricane
season is critically important for
all Texans.
Hurricanes
can
cause
catastrophic damage to coastlines,
and winds can vary from 74 to
157 miles per hour (or higher). In
addition, hurricanes and tropical
storms can also spawn tornadoes,
create dangerous coastal water
conditions
including
storm
surges along the coast, and cause
extensive damage from flooding.
Here are several measures
residents can take now to prepare
for potential storms:
•Assemble an emergency kit
that includes essential documents,
supplies and provisions.
•Review hurricane evacuation
maps, and select a route for you
and your family.
•Plan how all family members
and pets will evacuate safely.
•Consider any special needs
for individuals with disabilities
or the elderly.
•Stay informed about changing
weather conditions in and around
your area.
If you or someone you know
might need assistance during
a disaster, please register for
the State of Texas Emergency
Assistance Registry (STEAR),
a free registry that provides
local emergency planners and
responders
with
additional
information about needs in their
communities. To register, contact
2-1-1 Texas, the state’s free 24hour helpline. No matter where
you live in Texas, you can dial
2-1-1 or (877) 541-7905 for
community resources.

the 2016 hurricane season, please
