R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The Texas House of Representatives is pleased to 
recognize the members of the ESL Gifted and Talented Program at El 
Paso's Socorro High School for the dedication and hard work they 
have demonstrated; and
	WHEREAS, The program features an inventive and progressive 
curriculum that presents ESL Gifted and Talented students with a 
demanding yet stimulating academic experience, while providing 
them the opportunity to explore real-world applications of the 
information they study in class; the trip these students took to the 
State Capitol on March 17-18, 2003, is an example of the type of 
rich learning experience this outstanding program gives students; 
and
	WHEREAS, The six members of the Socorro High School ESL 
Gifted and Talented Program are: Brenda Bagues, Daniela Gandarilla, 
Perla Quintana, Flor V. Torres, Evelyn Zuniga, and Luis E. Zuniga; 
under the able guidance of teacher Rosario Rojas, these exceptional 
students have researched and met Hispanic authors and political 
figures whose work in government has served as a stepping stone for 
other Hispanics; and
	WHEREAS, The ESL Gifted and Talented Program at Socorro High 
School has benefited the lives of many students, enabling them to 
believe that no goal is beyond reach, regardless of a person's 
ethnic or socio-economic background, and the young men and women 
who take part in this outstanding program are truly worthy of 
praise; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas 
Legislature hereby commend the students of Socorro High School's 
ESL Gifted and Talented Program and their teacher, Rosario Rojas, 
for their interest in governmental affairs and their exceptional 
research efforts; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for the ESL Gifted and Talented students and their teacher 
as an expression of high regard and best wishes from the Texas House 
of Representatives.
