Smith Elementary cafeteria manager Margarita Medina earned two honors April 21: winning the “Bright Ideas Award” and graduating from the Region IV Manager’s Academy.
The other 43 members in her Academy chose her for the award based on the innovation and creativity she showed in problem-solving during the 9-month-long series of training classes.
"She always has an idea on how to do something different,'' said Matt Antignolo, Lamar CISD's Director of Food Services. "She never stops seeking ways to help improve the operation."
