WHEREAS, Since the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, the |
|
Fabens Independent School District Board of Trustees has worked |
|
tirelessly to foster a suitable learning environment and ensure the |
|
health and well-being of area students; and |
|
WHEREAS, The alarming scale of the pandemic has forced the |
|
school district to adapt to rapidly changing circumstances over the |
|
past year, including the closure of campuses, the introduction of |
|
remote learning, and the implementation of safety protocols upon |
|
reopening; tasked with setting policy and overseeing the operation |
|
of school facilities, the Fabens ISD school board has carefully |
|
considered public health guidelines while working with |
|
administrators, educators, and parents to determine the most |
|
efficient way for students to return to class; and |
|
WHEREAS, The dedicated individuals presently serving on the |
|
Fabens ISD Board of Trustees are president Rey Sepulveda, vice |
|
president Benjamin Morales, secretary Sylvia Gonzales, and members |
|
Orlando "O.O." Flores, Greg Spence, Adan Escobar, and Rosamaria |
|
Gallo-Avitia; the district also benefits from the able guidance of |
|
superintendent Dr. Veronica Vijil; and |
|
WHEREAS, Although COVID-19 has placed immense burdens on |
|
schools across the country, the Fabens ISD Board of Trustees has |
|
risen to this unprecedented challenge, and its members are indeed |
|
deserving of special recognition for their efforts; now, therefore, |
|
be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby honor the Fabens Independent School District |
|
Board of Trustees for its leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic |
|
and extend to its members sincere appreciation for their important |
|
work; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for the board as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
House of Representatives. |
