A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

To designate the week of January 27 - February 3, 2013, as National School Choice Week.

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF OHIO
(THE SENATE CONCURRING):

       WHEREAS, Since each child is unique, families should have various options for educating their children, and National School Choice Week was created to promote freedom of choice in America's educational system. This observance is a fitting time to honor those involved for supporting and advocating for public charter schools in our state, and their efforts are a justifiable source of pride and an outstanding reflection not only on themselves but also on the hard-working educators, administrators, and staff; and

       WHEREAS, Education is vital to our nation's continued economic and social well-being, and as the need for global learning and understanding increases, so do the demands placed upon our system of education. Thus, we pay tribute to those individuals who respond to these demands by promoting alternative educational choices for our children; and

       WHEREAS, Schools provide young people with much more than basic educational skills and enable children to learn the value of such important qualities as cooperation, self-discipline, and perseverance. As the citizens of the State of Ohio observe this special event, students, staff, and former students of public charter schools can be justly proud of their education, as well as the educational options available to future students; now therefore be it

       RESOLVED, That we, the members of the 130th General Assembly of the State of Ohio, designate the week of January 27 - February 3, 2013, as National School Choice Week; and be it further

       RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit duly authenticated copies of this resolution to the Governor of Ohio and the news media of Ohio.
