WHEREAS, Since the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, the |
|
Ysleta 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 Ysleta 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 |

|
Ysleta ISD Board of Trustees are president Cruz A. Ochoa, vice |
|
president Carlos Bustillos, secretary Kathryn R. Lucero, and |
|
members Connie Woodruff, Shane Haggerty, Mike Rosales, and Sotero |
|
G. Ramirez III; the district also benefits from the able guidance of |
|
superintendent Dr. Xavier De La Torre; and |
|
WHEREAS, Although COVID-19 has placed immense burdens on |
|
schools across the country, the Ysleta 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 Ysleta 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. |
