A RESOLUTION encouraging Jefferson County Public Schools to name a future school in honor of José Martí.

This non-binding resolution encourages Jefferson County Public Schools to name a future school in honor of José Martí, a Cuban independence leader celebrated for his advocacy of freedom and cultural impact. It cites Louisville's growing Cuban community (estimated at over 50,000 people) and Martí's legacy as a symbol of cultural contribution, referencing existing honors like Shively Park in Kentucky. The resolution aims to acknowledge both Martí's historical significance and the community's role in Louisville's cultural landscape. It does not create new requirements but formally recognizes Martí's legacy through a school naming decision.
