Summary

Senate Resolution 197 (SR0197) is a resolution that honors and commends three exceptional students from Haywood High School: Joslyn Owens, Makylan Seymour, and Quinteriah Fisk. This resolution recognizes their participation in the ALSTAR African-American Youth Leadership Summit, a prestigious event focused on developing leadership skills among youth, which took place on January 31, 2024.

Contention
