In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes Camden Cosper of Coosa High School for being selected as the school's 2026 STAR Student, an honor given to the student with the highest score on one administration of the three part Scholastic Aptitude Test who also ranks in the top 10 percent or top ten of his or her graduating class. The resolution notes that Camden chose educator Kim Owens as the school's STAR Teacher, a companion honor recognizing a teacher who provided support throughout the student's high school years. The resolution directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy for distribution to Camden Cosper. It carries no funding, penalties, or changes to Georgia law.
