Since obtaining his higher education at Stanislaus State, Israel Gonzalez is realizing a long-held dream by making a positive impact on his community like few others have. 

Gonzalez is the founding principal of Lucas Elementary Dual Language Academy in Ceres, one of the most successful dual language academies in the Central Valley and only the fourth dual language academy in Stanislaus County. 

Earning a college education is not an easy task for anyone, but it can be more challenging for students with visual impairments. 

That journey got a little smoother, though, for three Stanislaus State students who each were awarded a $10,000 Dale M. Schoettler Scholarship for Visually Impaired Students. 

Jose (JC) Aguirre, Morgan Jacobs and Jon Able, were among 39 California State University students to earn the scholarship for the 2020-21 academic year. 

The national economic recovery from the pandemic is continuing at a slower pace, due to emerging variants of the COVID-19 virus and a reluctance among some populations to seek vaccination. Reaching vaccination goals in late spring will speed up the rate of economic recovery in the second half of 2021, but complete recovery in the San Joaquin Valley — as measured by the region’s full employment levels — is not expected to take place until the end of 2023.
