My name is Benita Gonzalez. I am a veteran educator with 22 years of experience. I began my career at United ISD in Laredo, Texas as a 5th grade Science Teacher. My experience includes; Assistant Principal at United ISD and Dilley ISD and Principal at Cotulla ISD. This year, I am honored to serve the community as the incoming Principal at Dilley Elementary School. I hold an Associates of Arts degree from Laredo Community College, a Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies with a Bilingual Specialization Degree as well as a Master of Science in Education with a Major in School Administration Degree, both earned at Texas A & M International University in Laredo, Texas. I wish to thank the Board of Trustees, and our Superintendent, Dr. Emilio Castro for granting me the opportunity to lead the DES team and I look forward to another successful school year. A BIG THANK YOU to the Dilley community, parents and staff for the support and well wishes for a successful school year. Benita Gonzalez, DES Principal
