H.R. No. 1592
 
 
 
R E S O L U T I O N
         WHEREAS, Young people represent the future of our state, and
  providing for the diverse needs of students in Texas schools is
  critically important to ensuring that they receive an optimal
  education; and
         WHEREAS, Families deserve the peace of mind of knowing that
  their children are fully cared for when they are at school, and for
  more than 120 years, school nurses have played a key role in
  ensuring the physical and mental health of students at the campuses
  they serve; and
         WHEREAS, School nurses are nursing professionals who are
  committed to the health, well-being, academic achievement, and
  lifelong success of students; working as members of school-based
  teams, they address the home and community factors that impact
  students' health, and they serve as liaisons to the school
  community, families, and health care providers in order to promote
  better health and wellness outcomes; and
         WHEREAS, By providing access to care during a critical time
  in a child's development, school nurses help support a learning
  environment where students are empowered to reach their full
  academic potential, and the observance of School Nurse Day on
  May 10, 2023, serves as a fitting opportunity to acknowledge their
  contributions to our state and nation; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
  Legislature hereby recognize May 10, 2023, as School Nurse Day and
  extend sincere appreciation to the Texas School Nurses Organization
  for its work to strengthen the practice of school nursing for the
  benefit of schoolchildren throughout the state.
