H.R. No. 2521
 
 
 
R E S O L U T I O N
 
         WHEREAS, Teachers make a difference each day with the energy
  and creativity they bring to the education of our children; and
         WHEREAS, They help keep American democracy alive by laying
  the foundation for good citizenship, and they instill in young
  people a love of learning; and
         WHEREAS, Filling such roles as listener, explorer, role
  model, motivator, and mentor, teachers continue to influence us
  long after our school days are over; and
         WHEREAS, Few other professionals touch as many lives as
  teachers, and it is indeed fitting to recognize these committed men
  and women for their contributions to our state's most precious
  resource; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
  Legislature hereby recognize the first full week of May 2012 as
  Texas Teacher Appreciation Week.
