The smallest gestures are making the biggest difference thanks to Leander ISD Volunteer of the Week Zandra “Sandy” Castaneda.

Sandy serves as Reed Elementaryโ€™s PTA hospitality chair. She coordinates monthly surprises for teachers and staff, like treat carts and “Taco Tuesday”. For every staff memberโ€™s birthday, she celebrates each individual with a card and a soda. Sheโ€™s there to help. Whether itโ€™s pitching in at all of our evening events, setting up our school store, and even participating in all the parent leadership meetings.

โ€œSandy is a dedicated volunteer,โ€ Reed Elementary principal Paige Collier said. โ€œShe not only supports her son Zak’s second-grade classroom, but every classroom in the school.โ€

For her whole heart, energy and smile, we appreciate you, LISD Volunteer of the Week Sandy Castaneda! Congratulations!
