Summary — H 4032: “Heathwood Hall middle school basketball team” (Resolution)

Purpose and intent

This measure is a ceremonial House resolution recognizing and honoring the Heathwood Hall Middle School boys basketball team (Richland County, SC) for a remarkable 2024–2025 season and congratulating the team, coaches, and school officials for winning the regional championship and completing an undefeated season.

Key provisions

  • Formally recognizes and honors the Heathwood Hall middle school boys basketball team, its coaches, and school officials for the 2024–2025 season.
  • Notes the team’s season record: 21–0 in the regular season, 10–0 in region play, and a 23–0 overall undefeated season after regional tournament wins over Ben Lippen School (semifinals) and Hammond Academy (championship).
  • Lists key players (returning and newcomers) by name and acknowledges Head Coach Dominique Hammond and Assistant Coach Elliott Cross for their leadership and coaching.
  • Directs that a copy of the resolution be presented to Head of Middle School Glenn DeLaney and to Coach Dominique Hammond.

Who is affected / impact

  • Directly honors the students, coaches, and school officials of Heathwood Hall Middle School.
  • Ceremonial in nature — this type of resolution does not create enforceable law, public spending obligations, or regulatory changes. Its principal effect is formal recognition and public commendation.

Procedural / timeline notes (as provided)

  • Introduced and adopted in the South Carolina House on 02/19/2025 (per included text).
  • The bill information record also shows a series of legislative actions dated April–June 2025 (reads, committee referrals, “passed to be engrossed,” Senate concurrence). Those actions appear to reflect additional procedural steps recorded in the mixed docket supplied.

Important data inconsistency (document merger)

The provided version content contains two distinct legislative texts merged into one record:
1. The South Carolina House resolution recognizing Heathwood Hall’s basketball team (summary above).
2. A separate Massachusetts bill (“An Act establishing a sick leave bank for Dana Johnson”), presented by Rep. James J. O’Day, which would create a voluntary sick leave bank at the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families for a specific employee (employees may donate sick/personal/vacation days; remaining days move to the extended illness leave bank if dissolved; emergency clause).

These are separate measures (different jurisdictions and subject matter). The primary title you requested (Heathwood Hall middle school basketball team) refers to the South Carolina resolution; the Massachusetts sick-leave text appears to have been included inadvertently in the same package.
