Hinojosa EC/PK Students Show Houston Texans, Matt Schaub Their Support

Houston Texan quarterback Matt Schaub sent Hinojosa EC/PK Center a balloon and cookie bouquet Oct. 11 in response to the students’ card sent recently.

“We have been studying feelings at school and one of the students asked why people were being so mean to Schaub. I told him that some fans are frustrated and sometimes say mean things,” stated Felicia Flores, information literacy specialist at the campus.

Bilingual teacher Melissa Valencia-Pérez and her class decided to make Schaub a card and wish him well for the rest of the season. The students made a special poster for him and sent him candy kisses in a decorated can.

“My students learned about the importance of being a good friend and wanted to make him (Schaub) feel better so we decided to create a special card,” commented Valencia-Pérez. “Every student got to sign his or her name on the card.”

Schaub responded by sending Hinojosa EC/PK the bouquet and wishing all the students well.

“Hinojosa has always backed the Houston Texans with special luncheons, reading incentives for the children, counting displays and Texans spirit days,” Flores added. “We love our Houston Texans and support them all the way!”
