H.R. No. 143
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Sarang Patel has been named salutatorian of the
Class of 2013 at Dumas High School, and for achieving this
significant honor, he indeed merits special recognition; and
WHEREAS, Earning the title of salutatorian requires not only
intellect and aptitude, but also four years of dedication to the
highest academic standards; the student who garners this coveted
distinction must demonstrate a thorough understanding of a wide
range of subjects, from math and science to language arts and social
studies, yet the rewards of the countless hours of study and
preparation are myriad; and
WHEREAS, In addition to the pride inherent in being
recognized as one of the highest achieving students in his class,
the salutatorian is frequently the recipient of scholarships and
grants; he also gains the opportunity to address his fellow seniors
at commencement and to reflect on their shared history as well as on
their hopes and ambitions for the future; and
WHEREAS, The son of proud parents Shaun and Avni Patel,
Sarang Patel has earned the respect and admiration of his teachers
and classmates at Dumas High School, and his exceptional scholastic
ability, hard work, and commitment to excellence have surely opened
the way to limitless opportunities for this outstanding young
Texan; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Sarang Patel,
salutatorian of the Dumas High School Class of 2013, and extend
sincere best wishes for continued success in all his endeavors;
and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Sarang Patel as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
