Melissa Zarazua, Counselor at GPHSGophers, is the latest Grand Prairie ISD staff member to receive their doctorate. She earned her doctorate in Educational Leadership from Texas Tech University. Dr. Zarazua, congratulations on a job well done! GPISD is excited to celebrate this exceptional accomplishment with you.

🎉 Congratulations to GPHS Class of 2026 graduate Joshua Javier Moran Hernandez! 🎉

Last summer, Joshua attended Camp RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) Official Camp RYLA District 5810 , an intensive leadership camp designed to challenge students, build character, strengthen teamwork, and inspire future leaders.

Joshua made such a strong impression during his time as a camper that he was invited back this summer as a Camp Counselor, helping guide and mentor the next generation of RYLA students.

Camp RYLA brings together student leaders from across the region for outdoor challenges, service projects, leadership workshops, and life-changing experiences that help young people discover their potential and grow as leaders.

Being invited back as a counselor is a testament to Joshua's character, leadership, and positive impact on those around him.

We are incredibly proud of Joshua and excited to see him continue making a difference while inspiring future leaders.

Once a camper. Now a mentor.

Congratulations, Joshua! 👏
