WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
welcome the students from the Sacred Heart Catholic School in | ||
Uvalde, along with their parents, teachers, and administrators, | ||
who have come to the State Capitol to see their government in | ||
action on February 15, 2011; and | ||
WHEREAS, Sacred Heart Catholic School, a small, rural, | ||
private school located within the Sacred Heart Parish of Uvalde | ||
and the archdiocese of San Antonio, was founded in 1913 by the | ||
Teresian sisters; many citizens in Uvalde attended the school, | ||
and they continue the tradition by sending their children to the | ||
school to receive the same academic education, faith formation, | ||
and leadership skills training they received; and | ||
WHEREAS, Sacred Heart Catholic School has 100 students who | ||
are involved in many extracurricular activities; they are | ||
encouraged to step up to the challenge of being creative, | ||
exercising their talents, and being of service to others; and | ||
WHEREAS, The school recently celebrated Catholic Schools | ||
Week; in observance of the occasion, students collected house | ||
slippers for nursing home patients, had a talent show, decorated | ||
the school for an open house, and invited sponsors and families | ||
to a spaghetti luncheon; they also had a Reading Rodeo and a | ||
Breakfast Buddy Day; and | ||
WHEREAS, The students of Sacred Heart Catholic School are | ||
fortunate to have a school with superior opportunities for | ||
academic achievement, leadership development, and faith | ||
formation and educators who are committed to educating the whole | ||
person; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd | ||
Legislature, hereby proclaim February 15, 2011, as Sacred Heart | ||
Catholic School Day at the State Capitol and extend best wishes | ||
to all for a special, informative day; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared to | ||
commemorate this special occasion. | ||
