The United Independent School District congratulates United High School student Gabriel Eduardo Oliveros who was named this year’s Drive Sames 4 Education Car Giveaway grand prize winner! Gabriel is now the proud owner of a 2025 Kia Sportage. The exciting finale, hosted by Sames Kia in partnership with United ISD, took place at the Sames Auto Arena, just prior to the commencement of UISD's first graduation ceremony of 2025.
Gabriel Eduardo Oliveros along with 15 other high school students from United High School, Alexander High School, Lyndon B. Johnson High School and United South High School, earned the opportunity to participate in the drawing by maintaining perfect attendance throughout the school year. Now in its twelfth year, the Drive Sames for Education Program serves as a motivating incentive to promote perfect attendance and academic responsibility among UISD students.
Gabriel’s commitment to consistently attend class truly paid off. Achieving perfect attendance for at least a nine-week period made him and the other students eligible for the final drawing. After a highly anticipated selection process, Gabriel resulted as the fortunate winner of the 2025 Kia Sportage. A consultation prize was also given to the remaining 15 finalists courtesy of Sames Kia.
United ISD commends Gabriel Eduardo Oliveros for his dedication and outstanding achievement.
UISD thanks the Laredo Federal Credit Union, for covering the vehicle's tax, title, and license costs. Furthermore, A&K World Class Driving School will provide a driver's education package to assist Gabriel in navigating the roads safely. We also thank Chick-fil-A Marketplace on Loop 20 and Clark Blvd for treating three of our students to free Chick-fil-A for an entire year.
The partnership between United ISD and Sames Kia has been instrumental in promoting school attendance and academic success within the community. Sames Kia's commitment to giving back and inspiring our students to excel is truly admirable, and we are grateful for their unwavering support. United ISD extends its gratitude to Sames Kia and all the sponsors for their invaluable contributions to the success of the Drive Sames 4 Education program. Drive Local, Drive Sames!
