HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Teachers make a difference each day with the energy
and creativity they bring to the education of our children; and
WHEREAS, They help keep American democracy alive by laying
the foundation for good citizenship, and they instill in young
people a love of learning; and
WHEREAS, Filling such roles as listener, explorer, role
model, motivator, and mentor, teachers continue to influence us
long after our school days are over; and
WHEREAS, Few other professionals touch as many lives as
teachers, and it is indeed fitting to recognize these committed men
and women for their contributions to our state's most precious
resource; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the 82nd Legislature of the State of Texas
hereby designate the first full week of May as Texas Teacher
Appreciation Week; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That in accordance with the provisions of Section
391.004(d), Government Code, the designation expires on the 10th
anniversary of the date this resolution is passed by the
legislature.
