R E S O L U T I O N
1-1 WHEREAS, Few teams or individuals realize the dream of
1-2 winning a state championship, and fewer still are able to duplicate
1-3 such a phenomenal task; the Rule High School academic team recently
1-4 attained that elite status by earning its second consecutive
1-5 University Interscholastic League (UIL) Class 1A state title; and
1-6 WHEREAS, Competing at the highest level in academic
1-7 competition requires not only talented students, but also countless
1-8 hours of study and preparation in multiple disciplines; and
1-9 WHEREAS, Earning first place for Rule High School in
1-10 mathematics was the team of Sammy Bagot, Justin Custer, and Eric
1-11 Robinson, and that group also took second in calculator
1-12 applications; in addition, Mr. Custer placed second in both
1-13 individual mathematics competition and number sense, and
1-14 Mr. Robinson earned runner-up status in the individual calculator
1-15 applications competition; and
1-16 WHEREAS, Megan Jones and Kalith Trussell admirably
1-17 represented Rule High School in the area of computer science,
1-18 claiming second and third places, respectively, and the school's
1-19 one-act play Little Women was alternate to state; and
1-20 WHEREAS, Coaches Bobby Robinson, Jerry Cannon, and Alice
1-21 Jones provided outstanding leadership and encouragement to their
1-22 young charges, enabling team members to perform to the best of
1-23 their ability; and
1-24 WHEREAS, This dedicated group of young scholars are a source
2-1 of tremendous pride to the students and faculty of Rule High School
2-2 and their many supporters in the community and their achievements
2-3 are indeed worthy of special legislative recognition at this time;
2-4 now, therefore, be it
2-5 RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 75th Texas
2-6 Legislature hereby congratulate the Rule High School academic team
2-7 on winning its second consecutive UIL Class 1A state championship
2-8 and extend to the team best wishes for continued success in the
2-9 future; and, be it further
2-10 RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
2-11 prepared for the team members and coaching staff as an expression
2-12 of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
