   12  student engagement, and
   13         WHEREAS, Officer Mary Green was the inspiration for the
   14  Manna Food Pantries SRO Food Program, which was launched in 2019

   16  lunch is their only meal of the day, and
   17         WHEREAS, in cooperation with Manna Food Pantries, SROs
   18  countywide now keep a box of nonperishable food in their offices
   19  to distribute at their discretion to students, and the SRO Food

   21  and
   22         WHEREAS, over the summer, Officer Mary Green accompanied
   23  participants in the General Daniel “Chappie” James Flight

   25  to students was recognized by the academy board chair, and
   26         WHEREAS, Officer Mary Green has been named the 2019 Officer
   27  of the Year by the Pensacola Police Department, NOW, THEREFORE,
   28  
   29  Be It Resolved by the Senate of the State of Florida:
