## Resource

Pat Henderson, the transformative former superintendent of Lubbock Cooper ISD, passed away leaving behind a legacy of bold leadership and unwavering dedication to education. Known for his infectious drive and focus on academics and discipline, he pioneered the district’s own police department in the 90s—a visionary move that’s since grown into a vital safety net. His 36-year bond with colleague Thom Vines underscores a life built on loyalty and impact. In honor of his memory, donations are being requested for the Lubbock Cooper Education Foundation.
