A RESOLUTION


Commending Jennifer McHugh; and for other purposes.

WHEREAS, Jennifer McHugh has earned the esteem of her school and community in being named the Buford High School Star Student for 2007; and

WHEREAS, this outstanding young scholar has maintained immaculate grades while actively participating in a number of extracurricular activities and interning at McKendree United Methodist Church; and

WHEREAS, her passion for art and photography has led her to teach art classes and display her artwork at various exhibits and venues in the Buford community and elsewhere, and her pieces have earned a substantial number of sales for an artist her age; and

WHEREAS, this Georgia Certificate of Merit winner has been an extraordinary leader through such activities as National Art Honor Society, Beta Club, and the National Honors Society; and

WHEREAS, Jennifer McHugh has shown by the example of her academic accomplishments that the pursuit and attainment of scholastic success is within the reach of the students in this state, and her future plans include attending the Savannah College of Art and Design with a $15,000 academic scholarship; and

WHEREAS, in a world which seems to accentuate consistently the negative aspects of young people, it is abundantly fitting and proper for this body to honor the extraordinary accomplishments, intellectual acumen, and unsurpassed commitment to excellence of such an outstanding individual.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES that the members of this body recognize this outstanding young leader of the community, Jennifer McHugh; commend her numerous academic and extracurricular accomplishments; and extend to her their sincerest best wishes for the future.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Clerk of the House of Representatives is authorized and directed to transmit an appropriate copy of this resolution to Jennifer McHugh.
