HR 155: East Paulding High School's Career and Technical Student Organizations; commend

This resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives recognizes East Paulding High School's Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs), a set of school clubs tied to career training in fields like business, healthcare, skilled trades, and agriculture. The resolution highlights specific achievements by each group's students and advisors, including DECA's regional championship and industry certification, HOSA's healthcare pathway completions and community service, SkillsUSA's chapter awards and volunteer work, and FFA's agricultural education activities.
