Worker of The Week Lidia Zapata

For over 25 years, Lidia Zapata has been a dedicated member of the La Paloma Elementary School community, serving as their Bilingual School Clerk for 14 of those years. She has lived in Fallbrook for 45 years and has no plans of leaving anytime soon. Lidia's main goals are to continue serving her community and to simply enjoy life to the fullest.

When she's not working, Lidia enjoys practicing yoga and playing soccer, two hobbies that bring her joy and relaxation. In the past, she has also volunteered her time as a soccer coach for the Fallbrook Youth League, showing her commitment to giving back to her community.

During her one month off during school vacation, Lidia's ideal vacation involves nature walks, hiking, and taking in the beauty of the mountains. This time spent in nature rejuvenates her and allows her to recharge for the upcoming school year.
