Recently, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley designated May as Teacher Appreciation Month. As the husband of a retired teacher, I know firsthand the time, resources, support, and guidance our dedicated educators give to their students. While I regularly take the opportunity to visit schools and honor educators throughout the year, I am grateful for the opportunity to give special recognition and thanks to our hard-working educators this month. I would especially like to honor my constituent, Daniel Oddo, from Dreher High School, who was a finalist for the South Carolina Teacher of the Year. Staff member Drew Kennedy is a Dreher graduate. I am grateful for the Palmetto State Teachers Association, led by executive director Kathy Maness, for their tireless work on behalf of teachers across the State. The success of our teachers is amplified by the leadership of State Superintendent of Education Molly Spearman, who is dedicated to recruiting and retaining quality teachers in the Palmetto State. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and may the President by his actions never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
