Brother surprises Freeman ES student

Dec. 26, 2022

Nico Torres, a third grader at Garland ISD’s Freeman Elementary, had an unexpected visit at school. With the help of his mom, teacher and campus principal, Nico’s brother, who’s in the U.S. Army, got to surprise him at school and tell him he’ll be home for Christmas!

Edward Torres, a Garland High School graduate, has not seen Nico in three months. Nico is thrilled to have his brother home for the holidays.

“I get to spend Christmas with my whole family. I’m just glad he [Edward] is home,” Nico said.

Welcome home, Edward. Edward and Nico will have much to catch up on during the holidays. We are glad GISD and Freeman Elementary School could help with the surprise. We greatly appreciate your service.
