The State Board of Education (SBOE) recognizes the 2025 Student Heroes, an inspiring group of Texas public school students who demonstrate exceptional character, kindness and service to others. These students have engaged in numerous acts of service and shown remarkable compassion and leadership in their respective communities. The SBOE adopted a resolution in their honor during the June general meeting.
Taft High School senior, Jerry Chien, was one of 15 students throughout the state who received this honor. Jerry was recognized for volunteering over 300 hours as a junior firefighter with the Taft Volunteer Fire Department, actively giving back to his community through his service as a first responder.
