💙 Meet one of the newest members of our Braves team! 💙
Please join us in welcoming Efraim Fernandez, our new Bilingual School Counselor at Double File Trail Elementary!
Mr. Fernandez loves exploring the world with his wife and has traveled throughout Europe, Central America, and South America over the past several years. When he's not traveling, you'll likely find him cheering on his favorite soccer teams or spending time with his three grandchildren—including the newest addition, a Halloween baby born in 2025!
We're excited to have Mr. Fernandez supporting and encouraging our Braves this school year. Welcome to Double File Trail! 💙🤍
