He is now a doctoral candidate at South Carolina State University; and

Whereas, a ten-year veteran in the field of education and presently a Career and Technology Education (CATE) teacher, Mr. Pilot has served for six years in Richland One; and

Whereas, his able leadership helps ensure an environment ripe for learning, where students can gain a firm educational foundation and grow in self-confidence and respect for others under the mentorship of a caring teacher; and

Whereas, the General Assembly is pleased to honor this exceptional educator, G. Cleve Pilot, and the members join with his colleagues, students, family, and friends in extending best wishes for continued success in his career. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
