SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 195

WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas takes pleasure in recognizing the Granger Independent School District on the occasion of the 125th anniversary of its founding; and

WHEREAS, Located in Williamson County, the district has ardently upheld high educational standards since the Granger Common School District was founded in 1887, five years after the town of Granger originated as a railway junction; and

WHEREAS, The Granger Independent School District serves prekindergarten through 12th grade students and has maintained its tradition of quality education through the commitment of its enthusiastic students, devoted parents, visionary district leaders, and exemplary faculty; and

WHEREAS, This community-wide resolve to broaden the minds and horizons of youngsters may be linked to the establishment in 1914 of the Hus Memorial School, a teacher enrichment program that seeks to continually improve public education; and

WHEREAS, Today, the Granger Independent School District holds a Recognized rating from the Texas Education Agency, and its history as a source of knowledge and discipline is highly deserving of recognition; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd Legislature, hereby commend the Granger Independent School District on its 125th anniversary and extend to it best wishes as it moves into the future; and, be it further

RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for the district as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate.
