My name is Evita Gamboa, and I’m so excited to serve as the Site Coordinator for Slack Elementary. I was born and raised in Diboll, Texas, and have proudly worked with Lufkin ISD for over ten years in a variety of roles, including front office, classroom, and behavioral support. I truly enjoy being part of a school community that feels like family and gives me the opportunity to help students grow both academically and personally.
I’m currently attending Angelina College, continuing my education in Office Administration and Computer User Support. I’m passionate about helping students discover their strengths and watching them succeed. Outside of work, I love spending time with my husband, two teenagers, and our dogs. I also enjoy reading, crafting, DIY projects, and most of all, making memories with my family.
I’m so excited to start this school year and continue building strong relationships with our students, families, and staff. I can’t wait to see all the smiling faces and create fun, engaging experiences through the ACE program. It’s going to be a fantastic year at Slack Elementary!
