Henry B. Gonzalez Elementary Honors Board Trustee Jorge Barrera

All Stars are an elite group of players that excel at their game. 
The cream of the crop. 
The elite. 
The best of the best.  
Mr. Jorge Barrera is not only part of the All Star team, but in Henry B. Gonzalez's eyes he’s their MVP!
Dr. T.P. Chia said, “Hard work does not necessarily guarantee success, but no success is possible without hard work.”  One look into the accomplishments that Mr. Barrera has achieved and you understand why this quote speaks volumes of  truth. A graduate of our very own Eagle Pass High School, he is one of the innumerable
success stories that the Eagle Pass Independent School District has produced over the years.  When is
success enough?  Is there a point in life where you stop yearning for success?  Mr. Barrera has proven
otherwise.  Mr. Barrera is and has been part of tremendous and important projects and companies within our community.  Just as he found success, his heart is set on our students finding the same and even greater triumphs.
 Mr. Barrera, the Bobcats celebrate your accomplishments and thank you for your service. The sacrifices you make to be not only part of our school board, but also part of their campus will not go unseen nor will they go unrecognized.  The great Henry Ford once said,  “Teamwork...coming together is a beginning...keeping together is progress...working together is success.”  
The Bobcats welcome you as you begin your new task and look forward  to many years together!
May your combined efforts be another tale of triumph and vast achievements.  
On behalf of Henry B. Gonzalez Principal, faculty, staff, and student body, the entire Bobcat family thanks you from the bottom of their hearts.  
And in true sport fashion there is only one way to end their thanks....
GO BOBCATS!
