That year, he began his employment with Winslow High School as a metal shop instructor, a position he has held for a remarkable five decades; and
Whereas, throughout his career as an educator, Mr. Rockwell strived to make a positive difference in the lives of his students over the past five decades. In and out of the classroom, he instilled in his students practical knowledge and life lessons, and his tremendous efforts have enriched the lives of countless people in the Winslow community; and
Whereas, in recognition of his exceptional record of service, Winslow Unified School District renamed the high school's industrial arts building as the George "Rocky" Rockwell Industrial Arts Building; and
Whereas, Mr. Rockwell's unwavering commitment to excellence and his dedication to the thousands of young people who have entered his classroom over the years have earned him the respect and admiration of all who have had the privilege of knowing him.
Therefore
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of Arizona:
That the Members of the House of Representatives congratulate George "Rocky" Rockwell on the occasion of his retirement from Winslow High School and extend well‑deserved recognition for his fifty years of service to education.
