Whereas, in addition, Richland Northeast offers its general school population a comprehensive, innovative curriculum stressing a quality arts program as essential to the core education for all students and has more than seventy percent of its 1650 student population enrolled in an arts class; and

Whereas, in the Spring of 2006, Richland Northeast High School will send a delegation of teachers and students to our nation's capitol to perform on the Millennium Stage at the Kennedy Center; and

Whereas, it is with great pride that the members of the General Assembly recognize and honor Richland Northeast High School for its outstanding arts programs and the dedication and commitment of its faculty, staff, and students to making art vital to the curriculum at Richland Northeast. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
