WHEREAS, The retirement of Judith A. Guilbeaux from Dallas's
J. W. Ray Learning Center marks the culmination of an exceptional
career in education; and

reading specialist in Detroit before moving to the Lone Star State,

inspire teachers to teach well as an assistant principal at Urban
Park Elementary and most recently as principal of J. W. Ray Learning
Center, a position she has held for the past 12 years; and
WHEREAS, During her time as principal, J. W. Ray Learning
Center has thrived; the school has been honored with the
prestigious "recognized" status for four consecutive years, a
testament to Ms. Guilbeaux's stellar leadership; and
WHEREAS, Chosen to carry the 2002 Olympic Torch, Judith A.
Guilbeaux is an individual whose warmth and concern for others set a
notable example for students, faculty, and staff, and her legacy of
excellence will continue to benefit the J. W. Ray Learning Center
for years to come; now, therefore, be it
