WHEREAS, Students of Hedgcoxe Elementary School in Plano gain valuable insight into the way in which different people and parts come together to function as a system through the operation of the school's Chez Snoopy restaurant for one week annually; and WHEREAS, Now in its 14th year, this innovative program gives some third-grade students the opportunity to serve food to their parents, peers, teachers, and officials from across the district, while other classmates greet patrons, take orders, bus tables, and work the cash register; more than 20 parents volunteered during the 2005 operation, and the money raised will fund next year's venture; and WHEREAS, For over a decade, third-grade students of Hedgcoxe Elementary have enjoyed a taste of responsibility, adulthood, and the working world, and it is a pleasure to recognize their efforts and this unique and memorable program; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas Legislature hereby honor the third-grade students of Hedgcoxe Elementary School for their participation in Chez Snoopy and commend all those who have contributed their time to ensure the program's continued success; and, be it further RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be prepared for the students as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
