  prestigious designations an elementary or secondary school in the
  United States can receive; and
         WHEREAS, The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program was created
  by the U.S. Department of Education in 1982 to recognize campuses
  that have demonstrated superior academic performance or made

  was one of only 297 public and private schools nationwide and 31
  schools in Texas to have earned this impressive honor in 2022; and
         WHEREAS, Under the able leadership of principal Bub McIver,
  Springlake-Earth serves nearly 200 students in prekindergarten
  through seventh grade, and over the past three years, the school has
  introduced a number of initiatives to improve academic performance,
  including implementing a four-day week for students in order to
  give teachers additional preparation time; the campus has also
  improved its overall rating in state accountability measures and
  earned recognition for exemplary achievement in closing gaps; and
         WHEREAS, Through hard work and perseverance, the teachers and
  students of Springlake-Earth Elementary/Middle School have
  established a record of scholastic excellence, and their
  outstanding efforts have been duly recognized with the Blue Ribbon
  School award; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
  Legislature hereby congratulate Springlake-Earth
  Elementary/Middle School on its selection as a 2022 National Blue
  Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education and extend to all
  those involved with the school sincere best wishes for the future.
