Our Gonzalez Elementary students support our La Joya ISD anti-vaping initiative with the slogan "Don't Blow It." We encourage everyone to keep wearing white or gray every Tuesday throughout November! The goal of this campaign is to inform students, parents, and the community about the risks associated with vaping and to encourage healthier decisions.
