CONGRATULATING THE RICHLAND NORTHEAST HIGH SCHOOL MODEL UNITED NATIONS CLUB AND THE CLUB'S SPONSOR-ADVISER, MS. LYNN WASHINGTON, ON WINNING A SIXTH STRAIGHT FIRST-PLACE AWARD AT THE NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL MODEL UN CONFERENCE.
Whereas, the Model United Nations Club at Richland Northeast High School in Columbia has captured a sixth straight first-place award for the team delegation's performance at the national high school Model UN conference in New York City; and
Whereas, the twenty-four-member Richland Northeast delegation represented the Czech Republic in this year's mock deliberations, where two thousand four hundred students in one hundred fifty delegations solved the world's problems during five days of speeches, caucuses, and debates; and
Whereas, the Model UN emphasizes consensus-building and critical-thinking skills; the number of hours which the students put into this worthwhile work is phenomenal; the students engage in this activity on a strictly voluntary basis, and each student's place on the team which he or she wins is based on his or her particular talent and expertise; and
Whereas, Ms. Lynn Washington, the sponsor-adviser for the Richland Northeast High School Model United Nations Club is a truly remarkable and extraordinary individual; her hard work and dedication often are underappreciated; she is extremely intelligent and talented; she gives the students a zest for lifetime learning, for objectivity, and for fact-gathering; she leads them to become citizens of this State and Nation in heart and soul; she herself possesses a truly international spirit and outlook; she never seeks praise or recognition but deserves it in abundance; she never loses her great enthusiasm for her work, and she always motivates her students to learn; and
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly are very proud of the outstanding accomplishments of these fine students and Ms. Lynn Washington and are pleased to have the opportunity to recognize them in this special manner. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, congratulates the Richland Northeast High School Model United Nations Club and the club's adviser, Ms. Lynn Washington, on winning a sixth straight first-place award at the national high school Model UN conference.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the club, in care of the club's sponsor-adviser, Ms. Lynn Washington, at Richland Northeast High School in Columbia.
