 1-1           WHEREAS, The Lone Star State's most precious natural resource

 1-2     is our children, and the school social workers who have committed

 1-3     themselves to ensuring the well-being and happiness of our young

 1-4     people are indeed worthy of special praise and recognition; and

 1-5           WHEREAS, These dedicated professionals secure needed social

 1-6     services for children and their families in order to give each

 1-7     student every possible educational advantage, and their active

 1-8     involvement in a child's life can mean the difference between

 1-9     moving up or dropping out; and

1-10           WHEREAS, In fostering the active participation of educators,

1-11     parents, and their communities, school social workers help to

1-12     promote a positive learning environment and to prepare students for

1-13     the challenges and opportunities they will confront as they

1-14     approach adulthood, and in so doing, they improve the quality of

1-15     life of all Texans; now, therefore, be it

1-16           RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 75th Texas

1-17     Legislature hereby recognize the week of May 5-9, 1997, as School

1-18     Social Work Week in Texas.
