WHEREAS, Zakeri Reckmeyer, a student at Warhill High School in 
 Williamsburg, was chosen as the Second Congressional District of Virginia�s 
 winner in the 2019 Congressional App Challenge; and

WHEREAS, established in 2014, the annual Congressional App 
 Challenge is the nation�s most prestigious competition for K�12 computer 
 science, with more than 10,000 students from 304 Congressional districts 
 submitting 2,177 mobile applications in 2019 alone; and

WHEREAS, for his entry in the Congressional App Challenge, 
 Zakeri Reckmeyer developed My Class Rewards, an application to help teachers 
 implement a rewards system for students, alongside classmate Julian 
 Curtis-Zilius; and

WHEREAS, by tallying points with radio-frequency 
 identification technology and enabling students to redeem these points online 
 for prizes like snacks and school supplies, My Class Rewards facilitates a 
 teacher�s efforts to track student activity and provide performance incentives; 
 and 

WHEREAS, using HTML, JavaScript, 
 and CSS coding languages for the front-end of the application, and Node.JS and 
 a MySQL database for the back-end, the development of the My Class Rewards 
 application demonstrated remarkable coding literacy and knowledge of user experience design; and 

WHEREAS, a three-judge panel in the office of Congresswoman 
 Elaine Luria recognized the My Class Rewards application for its utilization of 
 complex coding technologies and design features while presenting an interface 
 that was both practical and easy to use; and

WHEREAS, Zakeri Reckmeyer displayed tremendous talent, 
 creativity, and dedication through his development of the My Class Rewards 
 application and undoubtedly has a bright future ahead of him; now, therefore, 
 be it 

RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, That Zakeri Reckmeyer, a 
 computer whiz at Warhill High School, hereby be commended for his selection as 
 the Second Congressional District of Virginia�s winner in the 2019 
 Congressional App Challenge; and, be it 

RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates 
 prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to Zakeri Reckmeyer as an 
 expression of the House of Delegates� admiration for his impressive achievement
