ALAMO — PSJA Memorial Early College High School (ECHS) senior Celeste Mora has been named a finalist for The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) Luminary Scholarship, one of the most prestigious scholarship programs in the region.

Last week, the PSJA ISD Board of Trustees voted to extend the superintendent’s contract for another year and also voted to adopt an update to its board operating procedures.
