During School Social Worker Week, we are proud to recognize Ms. Erin Ortiz for the care and support she provides to our students and staff at MLWGS. Her work helps ensure that our school community has the resources, encouragement, and guidance needed to thrive.

In addition to her role as our School Social Worker, Erin serves as a Foundation Board member and SCA sponsor, continuing to invest in the strength of our school community.

As a proud MLWGS Dragon alumna, it is especially meaningful to see her giving back to the place that helped shape her journey.

Thank you, Ms. Ortiz, for all you do for our Dragons!
