R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The observance of National School Counselor Week
from February 1 through 7, 2021, provides a fitting opportunity to
recognize professional school counselors across Texas; and
WHEREAS, These outstanding individuals are employed in
public and private schools throughout the state, and they hold dual

students to explore their abilities, interests, talents, emotional
well-being, and mental health; and
WHEREAS, School counselors work closely with teachers,
principals, and other campus personnel to guide students through
the process of setting goals for themselves; in addition,
counselors engage with parents to support the educational,
personal, social, and emotional growth of their children; and

and utilize community resources to enhance comprehensive
counseling programs; an integral part of the educational process,
these programs enable students to succeed and become productive
members of society; and
WHEREAS, Devoted to the development of our young people,
professional school counselors are helping to ensure that the
future of the Lone Star State rests in capable hands, and they are
indeed deserving of special recognition for their invaluable work;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize February 1 through 7, 2021, as
National School Counselor Week and extend to all professional
school counselors of Texas sincere best wishes for continued
success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of
Representatives.
