| H.R. No. 477 | ||
|
|
||
| WHEREAS, The Pflugerville Independent School District has | ||
| been named to the seventh annual AP District Honor Roll by the | ||
| College Board; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Inclusion on this honor roll is based on an | ||
| examination of AP data covering the period from 2014 through 2016; | ||
| to qualify for this distinction, a district must have increased | ||
| advanced placement course access for underrepresented students | ||
| while also maintaining or improving the percentage of students | ||
| earning AP exam scores of three or higher; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Ably guided by superintendent Dr. Alex Torrez, | ||
| Pflugerville ISD was one of just 22 public school districts in Texas | ||
| to earn this honor in 2016 and one of only two school districts in | ||
| Central Texas to make the AP District Honor Roll in both 2015 and | ||
| 2016; and | ||
| WHEREAS, This prestigious national recognition is a | ||
| testament to the hard work and dedication of the faculty, staff, and | ||
| students of Pflugerville ISD, and they may indeed reflect with | ||
| pride on this achievement as they work together to prepare for the | ||
| challenges and opportunities of the future; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby congratulate the Pflugerville Independent | ||
| School District on its selection to the seventh annual AP District | ||
| Honor Roll and commend all those associated with the district for | ||
| their dedicated efforts; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for the district as an expression of high regard by the | ||
| Texas House of Representatives. | ||
