H.R. No. 1637
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Paola Carrasco of McAllen has earned the distinction
of being salutatorian at Med High School, and for achieving this
auspicious honor she is truly deserving of special legislative
recognition; and
WHEREAS, Earning the right to call oneself "salutatorian"
requires not only intellect and aptitude, but four years of
dedication to the highest academic standards; the salutatorian must
display a firm understanding of the entire curriculum, from math
and science to language arts to social studies, while demonstrating
an unwavering commitment to education; and
WHEREAS, The salutatorian serves as a role model and leads by
example, combining a steadfast vision of excellence with a
tenacious enthusiasm; the competition for this coveted honor is
often fierce, although the spirit of the rivalry remains rooted in a
tradition of goodwill and the rewards of the countless hours of
study and preparation are myriad; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Carrasco has earned the respect and admiration
of her friends and classmates at Med High School, and as she
embraces a future bright with promise it is most fitting to pay
tribute to her for this outstanding accomplishment; now, therefore,
be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Paola Carrasco on being named the
2003 salutatorian at Med High School and wish her well in all her
future endeavors; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Ms. Carrasco as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
