I have had the opportunity to work with many students on different committees that are active throughout the District. When I see the creativity and focus they have, it is truly inspiring. They present opinions and perspectives that we, as adults, might never think about. I love seeing the confidence they have in themselves when they speak about topics they are interested in. Our students succeed not just academically, but in so many other areas also, which creates a well-rounded, balanced adult.
I would love to see each student succeed in whatever area interests them personally. We have such a wide range of talented kids that includes everything from artists and astronauts to welders and mathematicians! I want to see our students progress not only academically, but also as people of high character and morals. FISD helps the students achieve all this and more.
I believe every person should volunteer their time in some way for the betterment of those around you. That might include the local school, church, civic organizations, or any other worthy groups. I believe that when you give of your time and talents, you always get back more than you could ever give away. I know personally that’s been true for me during my five years of service as a Trustee. I believe that FISD provides a quality education, along with meeting the social and emotional needs of our kids, and that is part of why I choose to serve.

How Floresville students inspire Mr. Orth
The students of FISD inspire me with their dedication not only to school but to our community as well. Our students are so eager to perform at their best, whether in a contest or in doing community service. It's my belief that the values of performing well in school and in our community is bestowed on them by parents, teachers, and role models. I have had the opportunity to work with many students enrolled in our CTE programs and have witnessed the dedication these students have to FISD and their community.

How Floresville students inspire Mrs. Berlanga
I’m inspired by FISD students when I see them face a challenge and problem-solve to overcome it. Their tenacity demonstrates their willingness to work hard and is a characteristic that will make them a valuable asset to their community someday.
Mrs. Berlanga's hopes for FISD students
My hope for the students of FISD is that one day they can use their educational and social experiences as the foundation to build a stronger community, healthy relationships, successful careers, but more importantly, a better version of themselves. My hope is that our children will know failure is not the end, but it is an opportunity to learn and grow even when it may be uncomfortable. As Brazilian author Paul Coelho said, “There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.”
Why Mrs. Berlanga serves the students, staff and families of Floresville
I chose to serve the FISD community to bring another perspective that is representative of not only students and teachers, but taxpayers and community stakeholders. I have family members that chose teaching as their career. My own children have been in private schools, public schools, special needs schools, and homeschooling. No matter their previous educational experiences, I want every child at FISD to have the ability to attend a school that allows them to be successful and give them the tools to make their dreams come true. I believe in order to give our students the best chance to succeed, we must ensure our teachers are given the resources they need to excel in the classroom and to create a fun and safe learning environment for every single student.
