Congratulating Jacob Benner of Anahuac Middle School on his selection for the Middle School Honors Performance Series at Carnegie Hall.
HR 837 is a ceremonial resolution passed by the Texas House of Representatives on May 23, 2025, to congratulate Jacob Benner, an eighth-grade French horn player from Anahuac Middle School, on his selection for the Middle School Honors Performance Series at Carnegie Hall in June 2025. The resolution formally recognizes Benner's achievement after he was nominated by his band director, auditioned in October 2024, and earned a spot in the national program. It extends best wishes for his continued success and includes a formal copy of the resolution for Benner as a gesture of recognition. This resolution does not create new laws or affect any policies, as it solely honors an individual student's accomplishment.
