Whereas, South Carolina 
is fortunate to have such committed and caring teachers as Dacia Moore

Chesnee Middle School teacher Dacia Moore for winning two such high 
recognitions and for amply providing her students the opportunity to live 
complete and successful lives as outstanding citizens of their communities. 
Now, therefore,
