WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
recognize Aida A. Montanaro, who is retiring from the | ||
Brownsville Independent School District after 25 years of | ||
exemplary service; and | ||
WHEREAS, A native of Matamoros, Mexico, Aida Montanaro | ||
moved to the United States in 1984, and she has built a rewarding | ||
career helping the children of Brownsville to develop the skills | ||
they need to succeed as the next generation of leaders; and | ||
WHEREAS, Aida began working for the school district at | ||
Southmost Elementary School in 1994; while there, she was filmed | ||
teaching a lesson that was used as a training video in the | ||
Esperanza program for many years; she was also highlighted in the | ||
Brownsville Herald about research-based teaching strategies in | ||
the lower grades; and | ||
WHEREAS, After seven years at Southmost, she joined the | ||
first group of teachers at Paredes Elementary School; in her 13 | ||
years with the school, she coached the district's first | ||
elementary level Destination Imagination team which made it to a | ||
global tournament, and she led the school chess team to national | ||
competitions every year; and | ||
WHEREAS, Aida is retiring from her position as a Spanish | ||
teacher at the Senator Eddie A. Lucio Middle School, where she | ||
has helped to promote a culture of excellence through her kind | ||
and spirited example; and | ||
WHEREAS, Wherever she has served, Aida Montanaro has been | ||
beloved by students and respected by her colleagues; she is a | ||
truly gifted educator, and her presence in the Brownsville | ||
Independent School District will be greatly missed; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend Aida A. Montanaro on her outstanding | ||
career and her many contributions to the Brownsville community | ||
and extend to her best wishes for the future; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
her as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
Lucio | ||
