A RESOLUTION to honor and congratulate Reva Pierceall on her selection as the 2024–2025 Cornersville Elementary School Grades 5-8 Teacher of the Year.
Summary
House Joint Resolution 348 is a ceremonial resolution honoring and congratulating Reva Pierceall for being selected as the 2024–2025 Cornersville Elementary School Grades 5-8 Teacher of the Year. The resolution praises her dedication, professionalism, compassion, and positive influence on students, and it recognizes her service to the children of Tennessee and her commitment to education.
The measure does not change substantive law, create a new program, or appropriate funds. Instead, it directs that an appropriate copy of the resolution be prepared for presentation, which is typical for honorary resolutions. Its practical effect is limited to formal legislative recognition of an individual educator and public acknowledgment of her achievement.
Impact
HJR0348 has no direct impact on Tennessee statutes, regulations, or agency operations. It is a commemorative resolution that serves only to honor an individual teacher and to place the General Assembly’s recognition into the official record. The only procedural effect is the preparation of a presentation copy of the resolution, with standard language for official distribution.
Sentiment
The sentiment around the resolution is strongly positive and unanimous. Both recorded floor votes passed without any opposition, including a 92-0 consent calendar passage in the House and a 33-0 motion to adopt in the Senate. The vote totals indicate broad bipartisan support and no visible controversy.
Contention
There is no notable contention reflected in the bill text, committee record, or voting history. Because the resolution is purely honorary and concerns recognition of a local teacher, it appears to have been noncontroversial and handled on the consent calendar. No opposing arguments or dissenting viewpoints are recorded.
