Whereas, in order to prepare for competition, the team from Bell Street Middle School, which included two groups composed of a total of twenty-nine students, practiced many Saturdays and often several times during the week; and

Whereas, led by Head Coach Terri O'Shields, the eighteen coaches of Bell Street Middle School used their own scientific expertise and training to mold a championship team and set a standard for excellence that will serve these students well in future endeavors; and

Whereas, with teamwork and tenacity formed during demanding practices, the students of the Bell Street Middle School Science Olympiad team have excelled academically and brought pride and recognition to their school and to their community; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to pause in its deliberations to honor the success of the Bell Street Middle School Science Olympiad scholars, and the members extend best wishes to them as they prepare to represent South Carolina in the May 17, 2011, national competition. Now, therefore,
