|
WHEREAS, Established in 2000, the TX-20009th Air Force JROTC |
|
program at the school has expanded through the years, and MVHS Air |

Force JROTC cadets have distinguished themselves through their |
|
participation in the NASA High School Aerospace Scholars program, |
|
the Texas A&M Junior Cadet Accessions Program, Summer Leadership |

|
WHEREAS, They have served the greater community by sharing |
|
time with Adopt-a-Highway, Fourth of July and Veterans Day |
|
festivities, and Regional Park cleanups, and they have helped |
|
current and future members through the establishment of a tutor and |
|
mentoring program, wherein volunteers from Air Force Village II |
|
share their knowledge and guidance with cadets; in addition, they |
|
have honored the memory of fallen soldiers with the Heroes Plaza |
|
Memorial, dedicated in honor of a former cadet who was killed in |
|
Iraq; and |
|
WHEREAS, In January 2009, the group underwent an inspection |
|
by the AFJROTC area administrator and earned the highest possible |
|
rating of "Exceeds Standards"; and |
|
WHEREAS, The outstanding young men and women of the MVHS Air |
|
Force JROTC have demonstrated the importance of hard work and |
|
dedication in building an accomplished program, and they are a |
|
source of pride to their school and community; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas |
|
Legislature hereby welcome the Medina Valley High School Air Force |
|
JROTC to the State Capitol and extend to its members sincere best |
|
wishes for continued success; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
