R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Trinity Valley School in Fort Worth hosted its first
all-school reunion on March 31, 2017, to coincide with the 50th
anniversary of its first graduating class; and
WHEREAS, Originally called the Texas Boys' Choir School, the
school was founded by George Bragg and Stephen Seleny in 1959 as a
place for members of the choir to rehearse as well as to receive an
education; it was renamed Trinity Valley School in 1962, and in
1967, 13 young men graduated as part of its inaugural class; and
WHEREAS, Over the years, the school's enrollment continued to
increase, and in 1971, girls were admitted for the first time;
today, almost 1,000 students from kindergarten through 12th grade
attend the independent college-preparatory institution, which
moved to its current 74-acre campus on Dutch Branch Road in
southwest Fort Worth after outgrowing three previous facilities;
and
WHEREAS, For more than half a century, Trinity Valley School
in Fort Worth has been dedicated to helping young Texans reach their
full potential and become engaged and productive members of their
community, and it is indeed fitting to recognize this fine
institution as it marks this significant milestone; now, therefore,
be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
Legislature hereby commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first
graduating class of Trinity Valley School and extend to everyone
associated with the school sincere best wishes for the future; 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.
