Natalia Elementary School - Miss. Herrera's Second/Third Grade Class

Greeting from Natalia, Texas! We are the 2nd and 3rd grade Gifted and Talented class at Natalia Elementary. Our teacher is Miss. Herrera. We live in a small town in south Texas. The population of our town is 1,847. The closest city is San Antonio, which is 27 miles away. Many of us visit San Antonio often. Our community has many farms and ranches where cattle are raised or crops are grown. Maybe you have used some of our products! Our school mascot is the Mustang and our colors are blue and white. We are a very close knit community and many of our parents went to school here also. Miss. Herrera went to school here too! There are eleven students in our class and we are very anxious to do this project with you all. For more information about our school you can visit our website: www.nataliaisd.net

Now, as far as our Stanley is concerned, he is a very unique fellow. . He is a cowboy who works on a ranch here in Natalia. He is a very hard worker and is always on the move. He has a large herd of Longhorn cattle who keep him very busy, and several crops of wheat and corn. When he is not working he likes to sit down with his Flat family and enjoy some good home cooking. His favorite meal is beef stew with corn bread. Because of all the stress he endures, he is already balding. So, he never takes off his cowboy hat. He even sleeps and showers with it! There is only one thing Stanley cannot stand, and that’s gophers. Stanley had quite a run in with them a few years back when they ate up all of his crops. It was a mess! He has a wife, Sandy May, and two children. A daughter, Jamie Lynn, and a son Stanley Jr. All of which are going to miss him very much but are delighted to have all of you meet and take care of their beloved father and husband.
