         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
         WHEREAS, The dedicated individuals presently serving on the
  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.
