WHEREAS, Maria Elena Fierro has been named salutatorian of
the Class of 2013 at Holy Cross Catholic Academy in Amarillo, and
for achieving this significant honor, she 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 her class,
the salutatorian is frequently the recipient of scholarships and
grants; she also gains the opportunity to address her 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 daughter of proud parents Joe and Myrna Fierro,
Maria Elena Fierro has earned the respect and admiration of her
teachers and classmates at Holy Cross Catholic Academy, and her
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 Maria Elena
Fierro, salutatorian of the Holy Cross Catholic Academy Class of
2013, and extend sincere best wishes for continued success in all
her endeavors; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Maria Elena Fierro as an expression of high regard by
the Texas House of Representatives.
