WHEREAS, The MacArthur Academy of Creative Education (MACE) at Douglas MacArthur High School is helping San Antonio students remain in school and achieve their full academic potential; and WHEREAS, MACE targets underclassmen who have lost credit in core classes and are at risk of dropping out of school and affords them the opportunity to regain credit at an accelerated pace in a nontraditional setting; and WHEREAS, With a unique curriculum that employs technology, field and laboratory experiences, as well as community service projects, the program features a core group of caring educators; the MACE team consists of an English teacher, a math teacher, a science teacher, and a counselor, who are on-site to provide students with academic support and encouragement; and WHEREAS, The efforts of the faculty and administrators involved with MACE are helping students onto the path to success, and it is indeed a pleasure to recognize their outstanding work and achievements; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas Legislature hereby honor the MacArthur Academy of Creative Education at Douglas MacArthur High School for its innovative approach to teaching and commend all those associated with the program for their commitment to the youth of their community; and, be it further RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
