H.R. No. 307
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, La Joya High School is celebrating the 35th
anniversary of the founding of its Grupo Folklórico Tabasco and
Mariachi Los Coyotes programs in 2017; and
WHEREAS, Established in 1982, both Grupo Folklórico Tabasco
and Mariachi Los Coyotes are dedicated to promoting and preserving
the folklore and culture of Mexico, Spain, and Latin America
through music and dance; over the years, the ensembles have
performed for such dignitaries as Presidents George H. W. Bush and
Bill Clinton, Governors Mark White and Ann Richards, and numerous
members of the U.S. Congress; the recipients of state, national,
and international recognition, the groups have been showcased at
the French Quarter Festival in New Orleans and have twice been
invited to the Nice Carnival in France; today, the folklórico group
is ably guided by director Cristóbal Rojas, while the mariachi
ensemble benefits from the leadership of director Martin Cantu; and
WHEREAS, In addition to educating students on the vibrant
heritage of the Spanish-speaking world, both programs have helped
increase student retention rates and academic success at La Joya
High; many of the groups' performers have earned individual honors,
and most have continued their education at colleges and
universities that offer cultural scholarships; some have gone on to
perform professionally; and
WHEREAS, Over the last three and a half decades, Grupo
Folklórico Tabasco and Mariachi Los Coyotes have provided
countless La Joya High students with greater cultural awareness and
a means of self-expression, and this special occasion presents a
welcome opportunity to pay tribute to these worthwhile programs;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
Legislature hereby commemorate the 35th anniversary of the founding
of Grupo Folklórico Tabasco and Mariachi Los Coyotes at La Joya High
School and extend to all those associated with the two groups
sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That official copies of this resolution be prepared
for the ensembles as an expression of high regard by the Texas House
of Representatives.
