Purpose and intent

SR 54 is a commemorative Senate resolution that formally recognizes and congratulates Derrick Moore, Head Basketball Coach at Coahoma County High School, on achieving his 900th career victory. The resolution’s intent is to honor Coach Moore’s milestone, acknowledge his contributions to student‑athletes and the community, and to request official distribution of the resolution to him and related parties.

Key provisions

  • A formal expression of commendation and congratulations from the Senate.
  • A directive that copies of the resolution be transmitted to Coach Moore (and commonly to the school administration or school board) for appropriate distribution.

If enacted, no change to state law or funding occurs — the resolution is ceremonial.
