In plain language

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate honoring a specific high school sports team rather than a bill changing state law. It recognizes the North Forsyth High School competition cheerleading team for capturing back-to-back state championships in the 2024-2025 season under Head Coach Jessica Wood and Assistant Coaches Abby Smith and Reed Jackson. The resolution names each member of the team and praises their athletic ability, teamwork, and dedication. It formally states that the Senate congratulates the team and wishes them continued success, and it directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the team as a keepsake.

What the bill does

  • Formally congratulates the North Forsyth High School competition cheerleading team for winning the 2024-2025 GHSA Class 6A state championship.
  • Names the head coach, two assistant coaches, and all sixteen team members individually in the resolution's text.
  • Directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare and distribute a copy of the resolution to the team.
  • Creates no new law, funding, or regulatory change; it is a symbolic honor only.

Who it affects

The North Forsyth High School competition cheerleading team, its head coach and assistant coaches, and the school community. It has no effect on the general public, businesses, or government agencies beyond the Secretary of the Senate's administrative task of distributing the resolution.

Why it matters

The resolution has no practical legal effect on Georgians; it is a formal, public expression of recognition. Its significance is ceremonial, giving the team and coaches an official record of their championship acknowledged by the state Senate.

Key provisions

  • The resolution's first clause formally congratulates the team for winning the 2024-2025 GHSA Class 6A Competition Cheerleading State Championship.
  • The second clause directs the Secretary of the Senate to make a copy of the resolution available for distribution to the team.
  • No effective date, funding, or enforcement mechanism is included since the resolution is purely commendatory.
