R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Arturo Pecina, Jr., of Weslaco has earned the
distinction of being valedictorian at Progreso High School, and for
achieving this auspicious honor he is truly deserving of special
legislative recognition; and
WHEREAS, Earning the right to call oneself "valedictorian"
requires not only intellect and aptitude, but four years of
dedication to the highest academic standards; the valedictorian
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 valedictorian 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, Mr. Pecina has earned the respect and admiration of
his friends and classmates at Progreso High School, and as he
embraces a future bright with promise it is most fitting to pay
tribute to him for this outstanding accomplishment; now, therefore,
be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Arturo Pecina, Jr., on being named
the 2003 valedictorian at Progreso High School and wish him well in
all his future endeavors; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. Pecina as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
