|
|
met a series of requirements emphasizing community service, |
|
|
personal and spiritual growth, positive values, and leadership |
|
|
skills; as part of that process, she planned and implemented a Girl |

graduation, she plans to continue her education at Prairie View A&M |
|

University, where she will pursue a degree in accounting; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, By fostering self-confidence and by encouraging |

young women to explore career opportunities and to become more |

|
socially conscious, the Girl Scout program is helping its |

|
participants to achieve their greatest potential as engaged |
|
|
citizens and leaders; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The maturity and dedication that Ms. Hammond has |
|
|

a job well done; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas |
