H.R. No. 520

	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Communities In Schools of Texas has long made a
	positive difference in the lives of countless youth and their
	families; and
	WHEREAS, Part of the nation's largest dropout prevention
	network, CIS of Texas was established in Houston in 1979, and
	through the years it has expanded to include 27 programs throughout
	the state; and
	WHEREAS, This notable organization works to create
	partnerships with local school districts, businesses, and
	communities in an effort to provide critical services to students
	at risk of dropping out; of the thousands of participants served by
	CIS each year, 99 percent stay in school and 94 percent are promoted
	to the next grade; and
	WHEREAS, Helping young Texans to prepare for successful
	futures, Communities In Schools of Texas is a program of
	immeasurable importance, and it is indeed appropriate to take this
	opportunity to commend the group for the support it provides to
	students in the Lone Star State; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
	Legislature hereby recognize February 18, 2015, as Communities In
	Schools Day at the State Capitol; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for CIS of Texas as an expression of high regard by the
	Texas House of Representatives.
