A house RESOLUTION

 

to recognize and honor Stephen Michael Jeffcoat, a teacher at the Early Childhood Center for Lexington School District Four, and to congratulate him for being named the school's Teacher of the Year.

 

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Stephen Michael Jeffcoat has been named the Teacher of the Year at the Early Childhood Center in Lexington School District Four; and

 

Whereas, teachers who are nominated for Teacher of the Year are nominated by their peers.  Their peers consider how the teacher they wish to nominate in Lexington School District Four embodies the district motto of "Lead, Learn, Serve, and Excel"; and

 

Whereas, a native of Columbia, Mr. Jeffcoat graduated from Swansea High School in 2006 and earned a bachelor's degree in early childhood administration from the University of South Carolina Upstate in 2010 and a master's degree from Columbia International University in educational administration in 2022.  He also has certification in Montessori education; and

 

Whereas, he has been teaching for nine years since 2013, all of them at the Lexington School District Four Early Childhood Center; and

 

Whereas, he and his beloved wife, Catherine Schafer Jeffcoat, have one child, Sydney Noel Jeffcoat.  He is a faithful member of Sharon "Crossroads" United Methodist Church, and he is a Frances Mack Intermediate School (FMIS) Run Hard Coach; and

 

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives value the work of dedicated educators in the Palmetto State, who devote themselves to our youth by helping them to prepare to become productive citizens, and especially teachers like Stephen Jeffcoat, whose outstanding service has been honored by his fellow teachers.  Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor Stephen Michael Jeffcoat, a teacher at the Early Childhood Center for Lexington School District Four, and congratulate him for being named the school's Teacher of the Year.
