SR 59 Mississippi Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Commend Kirk Academy Girls and Boys Cross Country Teams for historic sweep of 4A State Championships.

This is a ceremonial resolution (SR 59), not a policy bill. It formally commends Kirk Academy's cross-country teams and coach Chuck Rose for winning the Class 4A Midsouth Association of Independent Schools state championships in October 2024, marking the first time both teams won in the same year since 2015. The resolution highlights specific athletes' achievements and the team's fifth girls' title and third boys' title. As a symbolic gesture, it has no policy impact or direct effect on any individuals or laws.
