## Summaries written by Georgia Commons

The following was written by claude-sonnet-5 from the text above and is not part of the resolution. Quote the text, not the summary.

A Georgia House resolution commends Noelia Sargento, a Georgia Northwestern Technical College student, for winning the state's 2025 Exceptional Adult Georgian in Literacy Education award.

### Plain-language summary

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes Ms. Noelia Sargento as the 2025 state recipient of the Technical College System of Georgia's Exceptional Adult Georgian in Literacy Education (EAGLE) award, which honors adult learners for outstanding achievement in adult education classes.
The resolution notes that Ms. Sargento was chosen from among 25 EAGLE delegates statewide and will serve as an ambassador representing nearly 22,000 students in Georgia's adult education programs. The House formally commends and congratulates her, and directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for her.

### Who it affects

The resolution directly names Ms. Noelia Sargento, a student at Georgia Northwestern Technical College, and references the Technical College System of Georgia and its statewide adult education programs, which serve nearly 22,000 students.
