🎉 Outstanding Performer Spotlight 🎶 We are so proud of Elian Maldonado, who was named an Outstanding Performer at the Texas State Solo and Ensemble Contest for his beautiful piano solo. 🌟🎹 This is one of the highest honors in Texas music education. Only about 2–3% of over 100,000 students statewide receive this recognition. Elian’s talent and dedication truly shine through. His performance was filled with heart and emotion, leaving a lasting impression. A big thank you to his supportive parents, Coty and Jesus Maldonado, and UIL Coach Mrs. Karina Aldape for always encouraging his passion for music. Congratulations, Elian! You make us all so proud! #CoyotePride #LJISDLegacyofExcellence #LaJoyaISD
