SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 755
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
congratulate Wendy Mohr on earning the Weatherford Chamber of
Commerce Miss Anna Hackett Award for her outstanding work as a
teacher in the Weatherford Independent School District; and
WHEREAS, An eighth-grade and ninth-grade mathematics
and algebra teacher at Tison Junior High School in Weatherford,
Wendy Mohr became a teacher after 17 years as a mechanical
engineer; and
WHEREAS, Although Wendy loved mathematics as a child and
began preparing for a career in math education, she switched to
mechanical engineering while in college, anticipating that a
career in that field would bring her more happiness than pursuing
her original dream; and
WHEREAS, She earned a bachelor's degree in mechanical
engineering from Michigan State University and a master's degree
in business administration from DePaul University; after serving
as a mechanical engineer and enjoying her service as a trainer of
assembly line workers, she realized her true mission in life was
to teach; and
WHEREAS, She served as a substitute teacher for a year
before obtaining a position at Tison Junior High School in 1999,
and she earned her Texas teaching certificate in May of 2000;
Wendy focuses on providing a safe learning environment for her
students and encourages her students to develop the skills they
will need for success in the future; and
WHEREAS, An exemplary teacher, Wendy Mohr inspires in her
students a sense of pride and a lifelong love of learning, and
her award reflects her dedication to excellence in teaching and
brings honor to her school, the school district, and her community;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas,
78th Legislature, hereby commend Wendy Mohr for winning the
Miss Anna Hackett Award and extend best wishes to her for
continued success and a productive teaching career; and, be it
further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
her as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
