Thrive Thursday This week, we’re excited to spotlight Breanna Santome, the Family and Community Outreach Facilitator for the LCPS Bilingual Community Outreach team! Breanna has been instrumental in supporting LCPS families, building strong bridges between the district and community partners to sponsor food drives, hygiene drives, and more. She's known for her creative, outside-the-box thinking and tireless dedication to making a difference. Through her leadership, LCPS partners with organizations like Roadrunner Food Bank of New Mexico, Walmart (Walton & Valley), Albertsons, Sprouts, Tresco Inc., Fiesta Foods, Las Cruces First, and SaveMart just to name a few. Today LCPS hosted its first drive-thru food distribution event at Central Office in partnership with Roadrunner Food Bank, an initiative Breanna helped bring to life! Starting today, these events will take place every first Thursday of the month at the LCPS Family Support Center (9:30 AM until supplies last). Thank you, Breanna, for keeping our students and their families at the heart of everything you do. Your work inspires us all. #ThriveThursday #LCPSCommunity #FamilySupport #StrongerTogether
