Students Unite For NEW U S Citizen Carolina Ruiz

On Thursday morning, students in lower and middle school joined together and formed a parade line as they waiting to surprise Sra. Ruiz for her latest accomplishment. Each student waived their American flags as a patriotic song played around the school.

Sra. Ruiz has officially become a US Citizen and the school wanted to show their support. She became very emotional and touched as she walked down the hallways seeing so many faces full of love and care for her! This is just another great example of the unity at Wesley Academy - United We Stand! Felicidades Sra. Ruiz!!
