WHEREAS, Irving Arredondo has been named valedictorian of the |
|
Class of 2009 at South San Antonio High School, and for achieving |
|
this significant honor, he indeed merits special recognition; and |
|
WHEREAS, Earning the title of valedictorian requires not only |
|
intellect and aptitude, but four years of dedication to the highest |
|
academic standards; the student who garners this coveted |
|
distinction must demonstrate a thorough understanding of a wide |
|
range of subjects, from math and science to language arts and social |
|
studies, yet the rewards of the countless hours of study and |
|
preparation are myriad; and |
|
WHEREAS, In addition to the pride inherent in being |
|
recognized as the highest achieving student in his class, the |
|
valedictorian is frequently the recipient of scholarships and |
|
grants; he also gains the opportunity to address his fellow seniors |
|
at commencement and to reflect on their shared history as well as |
|
their hopes and ambitions for the future; and |
|
WHEREAS, Throughout his academic career, Irving Arredondo |
|
has earned the respect and admiration of his teachers and |
|
classmates at South San Antonio, and his exceptional scholastic |
|
ability, hard work, and commitment to excellence have surely opened |
|
the way to limitless opportunities for this notable young Texan; |
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Irving Arredondo on being named the |
|
2009 valedictorian at South San Antonio High School and extend to |
|
him sincere best wishes for continued success in all his endeavors; |
|
and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for Mr. Arredondo as an expression of high regard by the |
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
