Whereas, Jane, of Charleston County, earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from Columbia College in Library Science and English in 1968. She went on to attain her Masters of Education in Elementary Education at the College of Charleston in 1977, and in 1987, she earned an Education Specialist degree from The Citadel; and

Whereas, after fifteen years in those roles, Jane worked at Morningside Middle School with the administrative intern program. From there she interned for the Deputy Superintendent for Administration for a year, and then became the assistant principal at Jennie Moore Elementary School, where she served until 1989; and

Whereas, during her time as assistant principal at Jennie Moore Elementary, Jane worked as a consultant for School Based Management Implementation Group for schools in South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama. She worked in this capacity until 1994; and

Whereas, in 1989, Jane became the principal of Mount Pleasant Academy Elementary School, where she has served until her retirement in 2017; and

Whereas, during her long, eventful career, Jane has received numerous awards and honors. Some of these include National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence, Gold State Incentive awards, Teacher of the Year, Principal of the Year, and many more too numerous to name; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representativesare grateful for the years of unparalleled dedication that Jane has devoted to the children of Charleston County and wish her many years of enjoyment in her wellearned retirement. 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 Jane McGee S.
