CONGRATULATING THE 2023 PROVIDENCE PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOLS GRADUATING

CLASS

     Introduced By: Representatives Sanchez, Shekarchi, Blazejewski, Chippendale,
Morales, Batista, Biah, Ajello, DeSimone, and Hull

     Date Introduced: June 14, 2023

     Referred To: House read and passed

     WHEREAS, Every year in late spring, young adults across America are attending Proms

and preparing for their next journey in life as they graduate from high school. Many will attend an

institution of higher learning, some will begin their working life as they enter employment, and

some will serve our nation and protect our liberties and freedoms as they join a branch of the

United States Armed Forces; and

     WHEREAS, This year, the most diverse group of graduates in Providence history have

graduated from Providence's public high schools, including Hope High School, Central High

School, Classical High School, Providence Career and Technical Academy, Juanita Sanchez

Educational Complex, 360 High School, Mt. Pleasant High School, Dr. Alvarez High School and

the E-Cubed Academy; and

     WHEREAS, The "Class of 2023" overcame great struggles to graduate. All had to deal

with COVID-19 and its impact on learning, and some graduates had to learn a second language

and overcome poverty issues, family issues, and other struggles to attain their diploma and begin

the next chapter of their lives; now, therefore be it

     RESOLVED, That this House of Representatives of the State of Rhode Island hereby

heartily and joyfully congratulates every member of the Providence Public High Schools

graduating "Class of 2023". We furthermore wish them much happiness and continued success in

all their future endeavors; and be it further

     RESOLVED, That the Secretary of State be and hereby is authorized and directed to

transmit a duly certified copy of this resolution to Dr. Javier Montanez, Superintendent,

Providence Public Schools.
