H.R. No. 83 is a resolution commemorating the 70th anniversary of Pearson Elementary School in Mission, Texas, which will be celebrated on September 6, 2025. Established in 1955, Pearson Elementary was one of the first five campuses in the Mission Consolidated Independent School District and is named after Lucille Pearson, a dedicated education advocate. Currently led by Principal Melissa E. Davis, the school serves around 300 students from early education through fifth grade and is recognized for its commitment to academic excellence and student development. The school has also implemented a fitness program through a grant from the Valley Baptist Legacy Foundation to promote healthy lifestyles among its students.
The resolution expresses the Texas House of Representatives' recognition of Pearson Elementary's contributions to the community and its role in providing a strong educational foundation for young Texans. It extends best wishes for the future to all associated with the school and calls for an official copy of the resolution to be prepared as a token of esteem from the House. The resolution was adopted by the House on September 2, 2025, by a non-record vote.
