A SENATE RESOLUTION

CONGRATULATING SUMMERVILLE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FOR RECEIVING THE HIGHLY PRIZED RED CARPET AWARD.

Whereas, Summerville Elementary School in Dorchester School District 2 was one of only sixty-six South Carolina Schools to receive the highly prized Red Carpet Award, recognizing their success at creating family-friendly school environments and providing excellent customer service; and

Whereas, the Red Carpet Schools initiative was one of only two programs in the nation to receive a Distinguished Single Project Award from the National School Public Relations Association; and

Whereas, schools were judged on a variety of factors, including the exterior and interior of the campus, the way people were treated in person and over the telephone, and the information on programs available for families and visitors. Winning schools receive red carpets with the state seal to display in their lobbies, and they maintain their recognition status for a three year period; and

Whereas, Summerville Elementary School's mission is to meet the needs of students and to help them develop the desire and skills to become literate, life-long learners and responsible citizens. The school strives to accomplish this by providing a safe, nurturing atmosphere and a curriculum enhanced by parental and community involvement. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate Summerville Elementary School for receiving the highly prized Red Carpet Award.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Summerville Elementary School.
