“This isn’t just a job for me. It’s a calling. I want to do more than help kids with school… it’s also about being there for them, teaching them life skills they may not learn anywhere else," Silvia said.

While formal attire wasn’t required for the field trip, Miguel reportedly wanted to sport a tie “being the gentleman that he is,” a spokesperson for NEISD said as part of a Facebook post.
