WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
recognize Guadalupe Regional Middle School on the occasion of its | ||
10th anniversary, which is being celebrated in August of 2012; | ||
and | ||
WHEREAS, Guadalupe Regional Middle School provides a | ||
tuition-free, quality Catholic education to boys and girls whose | ||
families desire, but cannot afford, a Catholic education; it | ||
seeks to instill in its students the values of love, justice, | ||
self-discipline, and respect for others so that they may become | ||
leaders in their communities and their churches; and | ||
WHEREAS, This challenging school is sponsored by three | ||
orders, the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament, | ||
the Marist Brothers of the Schools, and the Congregation of | ||
Christian Brothers; it is part of the NativityMiguel Network of | ||
Schools and is the only tuition-free Catholic middle school in | ||
Texas; and | ||
WHEREAS, The core of the school's philosophy is expressed | ||
in its rigorous, comprehensive curriculum in the arts and | ||
sciences with an emphasis on such fundamental academic skills as | ||
the written and oral expression of ideas, problem solving, | ||
critical thought, and the competent use of technology; and | ||
WHEREAS, Dedicated to the principle of breaking the cycle | ||
of poverty through education, this exceptional school has scores | ||
of graduates who are thriving in elite high schools and colleges | ||
across the country; it is truly deserving of recognition for its | ||
record of success; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd | ||
Legislature, hereby commend the students, faculty, and staff of | ||
Guadalupe Regional Middle School on their commitment to | ||
excellence and extend to them best wishes for a memorable 10th | ||
anniversary celebration; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
the school as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
Lucio | ||
