H.R. No. 2114

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Arlington Independent School District Board of
Trustees has named the new elementary school in honor of longtime
educators James and Barbara Adams; and
WHEREAS, Mr. and Mrs. Adams have an impressive record of
service with AISD; James Adams was employed by the district as a
teacher, counselor, and administrator before being named Arlington
High School principal, a post he held for many years, and Barbara
Adams was a respected and dedicated sixth-grade language arts
teacher at Hill Elementary; and
WHEREAS, Mr. and Mrs. Adams retired after 38 years devoted to
Arlington students; today, the couple's two daughters, Melissa
Nicholson and Jennifer Webb, carry on their proud AISD tradition
and are both elementary school teachers in the district; and
WHEREAS, The work of James and Barbara Adams made a positive
difference in the community they call home, and the school that
bears their name will ensure that their contributions will be
remembered and honored by future generations; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas
Legislature hereby commemorate the naming of James and Barbara
Adams Elementary School in Arlington and commend these notable
Texans for their exemplary careers in education; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Mr. and Mrs. Adams as an expression of high regard by
the Texas House of Representatives.
