WHEREAS, Dr. Jaklich began his distinguished tenure as | ||
superintendent of Victoria ISD in July 2012; under his able | ||
guidance, many campuses across the district have improved their | ||
state accountability ratings, and access to Advanced Placement and | ||

program for pre-K students and has greatly expanded community | ||
involvement with the district by establishing a number of | ||
partnerships with local businesses and organizations; and | ||
WHEREAS, This notable Texan previously held teaching and | ||
administrative positions at schools in the Northside Independent | ||
School District in San Antonio, as well as in Harlandale ISD, where | ||

holds a bachelor's degree from St. Mary's, a master's degree in | ||
administration and supervision from Texas A&I University in | ||
Kingsville, and a doctorate in education from The University of | ||
Texas at Austin; and | ||
WHEREAS, Dr. Robert Jaklich's hard work and commitment to | ||
excellence have made a positive difference in the lives of | ||
countless Texas students, and his receipt of this prestigious | ||
accolade provides a fitting opportunity to recognize his myriad | ||
contributions to public education in the Lone Star State; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas | ||
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Dr. Robert | ||
