||
WHEREAS, Bryce Wishoun of Spring has received STEM NOVA | ||
Awards from the Boy Scouts of America in all four categories of the | ||
program; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Boy Scouts of America established a STEM | ||
initiative to encourage natural curiosity and a sense of wonder | ||
about the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math; in | ||
addition, it created an awards program in each of these disciplines | ||
to recognize youngsters for excelling in these areas; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through participation in STEM activities, scouts | ||
learn skills and acquire knowledge that will allow them to succeed | ||
in a rapidly changing global economy; they also develop a spirit of | ||
innovation that is essential to the future prosperity of our | ||
nation; and | ||
WHEREAS, Scouts work with mentors in the program, but many of | ||
the tasks must be performed alone; in order to meet requirements, | ||
they must summon resourcefulness and dedicate a great deal of time | ||
and energy to reach the prescribed goals; and | ||
WHEREAS, Bryce Wishoun is a member of the Eagle Scout class of | ||
2019, Troop 777, and of Venture Scout Explorer Crew 112; an aspiring | ||

Awards not only in engineering, but also in science, math, and | ||
technology; and | ||
WHEREAS, In mastering the material necessary to garner awards | ||
in the four components of STEM, this outstanding young Texan has | ||
demonstrated qualities that will continue to serve him well as he | ||
pursues his dreams in the years to come; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate Bryce Wishoun on receiving four | ||
STEM NOVA Awards from the Boy Scouts of America and extend to him | ||
sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further | ||
