💙 Meet Wilfredo and Sandra Burgos — the heart of Alliance Morgan McKinzie High School. For over a decade, this husband-and-wife team has cared for every scholar like family. Wilfredo joined McKinzie in 2013 as a part-time custodian and parent, later transitioning to full-time. Sandra joined soon after, and together, they’ve built a legacy of love and service. From starting a school garden to advocating for campus safety, their impact is felt in every corner of the school. “We’re not just custodians,” Wilfredo said. “Somos parte de la comunidad escolar.” (We’re part of this school family.) Principal Rosa Menendez calls them “the lifeblood of the campus.” Gracias, Wilfredo y Sandra — you embody what it means to be #OneAlliance. 💙 (fb)
