SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 1209
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
recognize Guadalupe Regional Middle School on the occasion of its
10th anniversary, which is being celebrated in August of 2012;
and
WHEREAS, Guadalupe Regional Middle School provides a
tuition-free, quality Catholic education to boys and girls whose
families desire, but cannot afford, a Catholic education; it
seeks to instill in its students the values of love, justice,
self-discipline, and respect for others so that they may become
leaders in their communities and their churches; and
WHEREAS, This challenging school is sponsored by three
orders, the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament,
the Marist Brothers of the Schools, and the Congregation of
Christian Brothers; it is part of the NativityMiguel Network of
Schools and is the only tuition-free Catholic middle school in
Texas; and
WHEREAS, The core of the school's philosophy is expressed
in its rigorous, comprehensive curriculum in the arts and
sciences with an emphasis on such fundamental academic skills as
the written and oral expression of ideas, problem solving,
critical thought, and the competent use of technology; and
WHEREAS, Dedicated to the principle of breaking the cycle
of poverty through education, this exceptional school has scores
of graduates who are thriving in elite high schools and colleges
across the country; it is truly deserving of recognition for its
record of success; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 82nd
Legislature, hereby commend the students, faculty, and staff of
Guadalupe Regional Middle School on their commitment to
excellence and extend to them best wishes for a memorable 10th
anniversary celebration; and, be it further
