R E S O L U T I O N
         WHEREAS, Spec. Rafael Hernando III Middle School in the
  Socorro Independent School District has been named a recipient of
  the Purple Star Campus Designation for the 2020-2021 school year by
  the Texas Education Agency; and
         WHEREAS, This prestigious designation was created by the 86th
  Texas Legislature to honor campuses that have demonstrated a
  commitment to addressing the needs of military-connected students
  and their families; ably led by principal Valerie Hairston,
  Hernando Middle School qualified for the recognition by meeting
  several crucial requirements, which include designating a
  campus-based military liaison, establishing a campus transition
  program, and maintaining an easily accessible website with
  information specific to military-connected students; and
         WHEREAS, Americans owe a profound debt of gratitude to the
  men and women who have answered our nation's call to duty, and
  Hernando Middle School is indeed deserving of recognition for its
  dedication to supporting military families; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
  Legislature hereby congratulate Spec. Rafael Hernando III Middle
  School on receiving the 2020-2021 Purple Star Campus Designation
  and extend to all those associated with the school sincere best
  wishes for the future; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas
  House of Representatives.
