H.R. No. 103 |
|
||
WHEREAS, Imogene Giesinger Elementary School in Conroe has | ||
been named a National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of | ||
Education; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Blue Ribbon designation recognizes schools that | ||
have maintained superior levels of academic achievement or that are | ||
making significant gains while serving an economically | ||
disadvantaged student population; presented with the honor for its | ||
overall academic excellence, Giesinger Elementary is among 25 | ||
campuses in Texas and fewer than 300 public and private schools in | ||
the nation to be selected as Blue Ribbon Schools in 2014; and | ||
WHEREAS, Under the skillful guidance of principal Rebecca | ||
Shepard Page, Giesinger Elementary has been rated "Exemplary" by | ||
the Texas Education Agency for three of the past five years, and in | ||
2014, the school was named a Title I Reward School based on student | ||
performance and improvement; these accomplishments are a testament | ||
to the school's success in creating an engaging learning | ||
environment in which the individual strengths and needs of each | ||
student are considered, as well as to its productive efforts to | ||
encourage the involvement of parents and community volunteers in | ||
the education process; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through their diligence, hard work, and dedication, | ||
the teachers and students of Giesinger Elementary School have built | ||
an impressive record of scholastic success, and they may take great | ||
pride in earning this prestigious honor; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate Imogene Giesinger Elementary | ||
School on its selection as a 2014 Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. | ||
Department of Education and extend to the school's students, | ||
teachers, staff, and administrators sincere best wishes for | ||
continued achievement; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. | ||
