On the recordDecember 9, 2020
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the memory of Mrs. Susan Day, a beloved teacher in the Corpus Christi community who passed away on October 5, 2020. Mrs. Day was a passionate and dedicated educator at Calallen High School who retired this past May after 36 years of service to our community. Students and parents alike described her as devoted, energetic, and inspiring. She would challenge her students with quality education while encouraging them with her enthusiasm and charm. The students of Calallen High School tell stories of the many experiences she gave them, including coaching the Calallen Challenge Team to three wins in the local TV quiz show. The English department chose to recognize her with a plaque declaring the English hallway, a place she had spent so much time with her students, to be the Susan Day Hallway. Susan Day was an amazing member of our community who has touched the lives of hundreds of students, parents, and teachers. I offer my condolences to her family, friends, and students as they grieve the loss of a great woman. She will be fondly remembered by all for the investment and impact she has made in the lives of so many students. ____________________
