HR324: HR324 Student Leadership NORTH; commend

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Student Leadership NORTH, formerly called Student Leadership Johns Creek. The organization is a joint effort by local business and civic leaders to train area youth for leadership roles. The resolution describes the program as a two year experience for sophomores and juniors from several area high schools and private schools, including Centennial, Chattahoochee, Johns Creek, Northview, Mt. Pisgah School, Providence Christian Academy, Innovation Academy, and Alpharetta High School. It notes the program's college outcomes and formally recognizes the organization. The resolution directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy for distribution to the group. It does not change any Georgia law.

• Formally recognizes and commends Student Leadership NORTH for its work training young community leaders in the Johns Creek, Roswell, and Alpharetta area.
• Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the organization.
• Creates no new statutory requirements, funding, or penalties, since it is a commendation rather than a law change.

The resolution directly names Student Leadership NORTH and the high schools and private schools involved in its program, including Centennial, Chattahoochee, Johns Creek, Northview, Mt. Pisgah School, Providence Christian Academy, Innovation Academy, and Alpharetta High School.

• The preamble (whereas clauses) describes Student Leadership NORTH's mission and program structure across a two-year leadership curriculum.
• The first resolved clause has the House of Representatives recognize and commend the organization for its work with young leaders.
