H.R. No. 1882

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Ivan Saldaña of IDEA Frontier College Prep is being
awarded a 2017 Dell Scholarship; and
WHEREAS, An initiative of the Michael and Susan Dell
Foundation, the Dell Scholars Program awards scholarships annually
to up to 400 low-income students, most of whom represent the first
generation in their families to attend college, and many of whom
have already overcome various personal challenges in their lives;
in addition to an annual $20,000 award that is renewable for six
years, the program provides a laptop, tutoring, mentoring, and
other resources; more than 80 percent of Dell Scholars graduate
within six years, four times the national rate for low-income
students; and
WHEREAS, A most deserving recipient, Ivan Saldaña has
demonstrated impressive drive and ability as he works toward his
scholastic and personal goals, and he may indeed look forward to a
future bright with promise; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Ivan Saldaña on his receipt of a
2017 Dell Scholarship and extend to him sincere best wishes for
continued success in all his endeavors; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. Saldaña as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
