Congratulations to LISD's April Youth of the Month Sara Contreras. Contreras is a 10th grade student at Garcia Early College High and is also dual-enrolled at TAMIU. She is currently taking college credit courses in Psychology and Music Theory.
She likes coming to school because she is part of the dual enrollment program that allows her to attend college classes at TAMIU and receive that college life experience.
Sara is an active student on campus and in our community. She is part of the Student Council, National Honor Society, Spanish Honor Society, UIL Current Events, the school newspaper The Phoenix Quarterly, and Phoenix yearbook.
Sara volunteers at her church and serves as an usher. She is a member of The Chosen Youth. Outside of school she is part of the LULAC Youth Organization and serves on the Ola committee.
She enjoys playing volleyball and basketball, reading, and just going out for walks.
Sara plan on becoming a forensic psychologist and attending Texas State or the University of Houston to purse her degree and PHD. She wants to come back to Laredo and serve her community with the Child Advocacy Center.
She attended Ryan Elementary School and Lamar Middle School.
