A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND CONGRATULATE THE KELLY MILL MIDDLE SCHOOL ECONOMICS TEAM ON WINNING THE 2013 SOUTH CAROLINA FINANCE CHALLENGE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the Kelly Mill Middle School economics team captured first place in the 2013 South Carolina Finance Challenge; and

Whereas, a statewide contest coordinated through the Darla Moore School of Business at the University of South Carolina and local schools, the South Carolina Finance Challenge is an opportunity for students to demonstrate their knowledge of personal finance by competing with other students across the state in a multiple-choice examination; and

Whereas, students enter the Finance Challenge online and complete a thirty-question, rapid-fire exam consisting of categories on income and money management, spending and credit, and saving and investing. Each student is given thirty-five minutes to complete the exam; and

Whereas, working individually, students must depend on their current financial knowledge and skill and may not utilize any outside materials or testing aids, nor may they receive coaching assistance during their challenge session; and

Whereas, generous cash prizes are awarded to both winning team members and coach; and

Whereas, the Kelly Mill Middle School economics team members and their fine coach, David Walker, have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and the House of Representatives looks forward to hearing of their further successes in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and congratulate the Kelly Mill Middle School economics team on winning the 2013 South Carolina Finance Challenge.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Jeff E. Temoney and Coach David Walker of Kelly Mill Middle School.
