(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - okay i am brianna alonzo, a student at mission jr high school. i went to midkiff elemantary, i loved elemantary and i didnt want to leave it. but i also love mjhs. the day i got there i was already having fun. but then again our scool isnt just about fun. i have learned alot the past few months. its been great i wish i could spent the rest of my life there. and today we learned that last night the death of one of our beloved 6th grade math teachers, mrs.lori gonzales, who was involved in a car accident in mcallen. our thoughts and prayers are with the gonzalez family, her friends at mission jr high school and leal elementary, and all others close to her. please keep mrs. gonzalez' family in your prayers. her daughter is in critical condition in the hospital. her daughter is a student at veterans memorial high school. she was with her mother the night it happened but only her mother passed.
R.I.P, Mrs. Lori Gonzalez
