In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a bill that changes state law. It recognizes Rhea Brashear, who teaches in the adult education program at Southern Regional Technical College, for winning the Technical College System of Georgia's 2024 Adult Education Teacher of the Year award. The resolution states that Brashear was chosen from a competitive group of instructors across the state's technical college system for demonstrating strong teaching practices and leadership. The House formally congratulates and commends her, wishes her continued success, and directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for her.
