In memory of Christopher "Chris" Jake Stone.
This resolution (SR 554) honors Christopher "Chris" Jake Stone, a 17-year-old Santa Fe High School student who died heroically in the 2018 school shooting while barricading a classroom door to protect classmates. It commemorates his posthumous recognition as a Young Hero Award recipient and his legacy of selflessness. The Texas Senate formally adopted the resolution to pay tribute to his life and courage, and adjourned in his memory. (Note: This is a commemorative resolution, not a bill with policy changes.)
