Greer, whose tireless work has contributed immeasurably to the | ||
quality of life in her hometown of Hallsville; and | ||
WHEREAS, A lifelong resident of Hallsville and a proud | ||
Hallsville Independent School District Bobcat, Mrs. Greer earned | ||
a bachelor's degree in elementary and physical education and went | ||
on to receive a master's degree and an administrative | ||
certification in education; following in the footsteps of her | ||
mother, a first-grade teacher in Hallsville, Mrs. Greer taught | ||
ninth-grade English before filling the district's need for a | ||
physical education instructor, a job that became her passion for | ||
25 years; and | ||
WHEREAS, After receiving training in public relations, | ||
Mrs. Greer transitioned to the role of district spokeswoman and | ||
then to community outreach coordinator; her work has involved | ||
serving as a liaison with the public and sharing stories about | ||
school activities and student achievements through various | ||
Hallsville Independent School District publications; in | ||
addition, she has helped oversee many district events and | ||
programs, while also maintaining the upkeep of its website, | ||
social media pages, yearbooks, and scrapbooks; and | ||
WHEREAS, Mrs. Greer has volunteered her time in behalf of | ||
the wider community by assisting with the coordination of a | ||
multitude of parades and other events, including festivities for | ||
the 150th anniversary of Hallsville's founding in 2019; known by | ||
the nickname "Mrs. Hallsville" by many, she has been honored as a | ||
Distinguished Alumna of Hallsville High School and as a Citizen | ||
of the Year by the Hallsville Chamber of Commerce; and | ||
WHEREAS, Carol Greer has demonstrated a lasting commitment | ||
to making Hallsville a better place for all, and in so doing, she | ||
has earned the deep respect and appreciation of her fellow | ||
residents; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend Carol Greer for her contributions to | ||
the Hallsville Independent School District and the Hallsville | ||
community and extend to her sincere best wishes for continued | ||
happiness and fulfillment in her work; and, be it further | ||
