their school and community; and |

|
|
each school; and |
|
|

|
accomplishments; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commend the members of the Berkner High School |
|
|
Bill Club for their advocacy efforts and extend to all those |
