R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Emily Collins graduated as salutatorian of the 2013
senior class of Pleasanton High School; and
WHEREAS, Earning the title of salutatorian requires not only
intellect and aptitude, but also four years of dedication to the
highest academic standards; the student who garners this coveted
distinction must demonstrate a thorough understanding of a wide
range of subjects, yet the rewards of the countless hours of study
and preparation are myriad; and
WHEREAS, Outside of school, Ms. Collins has shared her time
and energy as a volunteer with the local humane society and with a
summer reading program for children; in addition, she assisted at a
soup kitchen and performed at a concert benefiting the homeless;
she plans to study journalism at The University of Texas at Austin;
and
WHEREAS, Throughout her academic career, Emily Collins has
earned the respect and admiration of her teachers and classmates at
Pleasanton High, and her exceptional scholastic ability, hard work,
and commitment to excellence have opened the way to limitless
opportunities for this remarkable young Texan; now, therefore, be
it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Emily
Collins, salutatorian of the Pleasanton High School Class of 2013,
and extend to her sincere best wishes for continued success as she
begins the next exciting chapter of her life; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Ms. Collins as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
