ESCANDON ELEMENTARY

Principal’s Message

Socorro Luna

With over 40 years of dedicated service to La Joya ISD, I bring a wealth of experience in instructional leadership across a variety of roles. My educational journey began as a paraprofessional, followed by 14 years as a classroom teacher at Benavides Elementary and Diaz-Villarreal Elementary.

I then transitioned into administration, serving as a district-level supervisor and testing coordinator, Principal at Sam Fordyce Elementary, and Assistant Principal and Master Scheduler at J.D. Salinas Middle School.

I am honored to serve as Principal at Jose de Escandon Elementary. I am deeply committed to fostering a collaborative school culture grounded in data-driven practices. I believe in building a supportive environment with high expectations, where students thrive and educators continue to grow. I look forward to leading with purpose and working closely with our school community to ensure that every student reaches their full potential.
