   Mr. Moran (for himself and Mr. Marshall) submitted the following

                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
  Commending the heroism of Olathe East High School Administrator Dr. 
Kaleb Stoppel and School Resource Officer Erik Clark in responding to a 
                     student armed with a firearm.

Whereas, on Friday, March 4, 2022, 2 employees of Olathe East High School in 
        Olathe, Kansas, Administrator Dr. Kaleb Stoppel (referred to in this 
        preamble as ``Dr. Stoppel'') and School Resource Officer Erik Clark 
        (referred to in this preamble as ``Officer Clark''), were shot and 
        wounded while engaging with an armed student;
Whereas the decision of Dr. Stoppel to remove the student from class and the 
        swift response of Officer Clark to neutralize the student after he began 
        shooting prevented the loss of innocent lives at Olathe East High 
        School;
Whereas Officer Clark has been a school resource officer at Olathe East High 
        School for 7 years and a law enforcement officer for 15 years; and
Whereas Dr. Stoppel has been an Assistant Principal and the Athletic Director of 
        Olathe East High School for nearly 4 years and an educator for nearly 13 
        years: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), 
That the Senate--
            (1) commends Administrator Dr. Kaleb Stoppel and School 
        Resource Officer Erik Clark for their heroic actions to protect 
        students and staff of Olathe East High School; and
            (2) recognizes Administrator Dr. Kaleb Stoppel and School 
        Resource Officer Erik Clark for their years of dedication and 
        service to their community as an educator and a member of law 
        enforcement, respectively.
