Lifelong Leaders

The shoulder loop insignia contains three main symbols: Orange, blue and green are the school’s colors. The chevron reversed alludes to the letter ‘V’, signifying Vaqueros, the school mascot, as well as the Rio Grande Valley. The solitary star is in tribute to Texas, the Lone Star State.
