celebrating the 85th anniversary of its founding in 2015; and |
|

Jesus in September 1929, the institution became a boys' military |

body in grades pre-K through eight; in addition to providing |

traditional academic and honors programs, the school enables |

students to explore and expand their interests through special |

studies and extracurricular activities ranging from musical |
|
theater and the performing arts to athletics and robotics; and |
|
WHEREAS, For eight and a half decades, the faculty and staff |
|
of Mount Sacred Heart have committed themselves to equipping young |
|
Texans with a strong educational foundation, and it is indeed |
|
fitting that the school be recognized on this special occasion; |
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby commemorate the 85th anniversary of Mount Sacred |

|
further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
