|
|
||
| WHEREAS, Imogene Giesinger Elementary School in Conroe has | ||
| been named a National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of | ||
| Education; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The Blue Ribbon designation recognizes schools that | ||
| have maintained superior levels of academic achievement or that are | ||
| making significant gains while serving an economically | ||
| disadvantaged student population; presented with the honor for its | ||
| overall academic excellence, Giesinger Elementary is among 25 | ||
| campuses in Texas and fewer than 300 public and private schools in | ||
| the nation to be selected as Blue Ribbon Schools in 2014; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Under the skillful guidance of principal Rebecca | ||
| Shepard Page, Giesinger Elementary has been rated "Exemplary" by | ||
| the Texas Education Agency for three of the past five years, and in | ||
| 2014, the school was named a Title I Reward School based on student | ||
| performance and improvement; these accomplishments are a testament | ||
| to the school's success in creating an engaging learning | ||
| environment in which the individual strengths and needs of each | ||
| student are considered, as well as to its productive efforts to | ||
| encourage the involvement of parents and community volunteers in | ||
| the education process; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Through their diligence, hard work, and dedication, | ||
| the teachers and students of Giesinger Elementary School have built | ||
| an impressive record of scholastic success, and they may take great | ||
| pride in earning this prestigious honor; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby congratulate Imogene Giesinger Elementary | ||
| School on its selection as a 2014 Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. | ||
| Department of Education and extend to the school's students, | ||
| teachers, staff, and administrators sincere best wishes for | ||
| continued achievement; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
| House of Representatives. | ||
