SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 137
|
|
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to |
|
join Texans across the state in celebrating February 6 through |
|
10, 2017, as School Counseling Week; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, School counselors are dedicated to helping |
|
students reach their full potential by encouraging them to |
|
explore their abilities, strengths, interests, and talents and to |
|
learn about the role those traits play in career development; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Committed to the goal of developing well-rounded |
|
students, school counselors work with parents to recommend ways |
|
they can further the educational, personal, and social growth of |
|
their children; they also collaborate with teachers and other |
|
educators to help students become aware of their potential and |
|
set realistic goals for themselves; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, To better serve the students of our state, school |
|
counselors identify and utilize community resources that can |
|
enhance and complement school counseling programs; it is truly |
|
fitting that these dedicated professionals receive special |
|
recognition for the vital role they play in equipping today's |
|
students to face the challenges of tomorrow; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th |
|
Legislature, hereby commend the state's school counselors on |
|
their commitment to helping students prepare for life in today's |
|
complex world and extend to them best wishes for a productive and |
|
memorable School Counseling Week; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared in |
|
honor of this special occasion. |
