                           HON. MARTIN FROST

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 18, 1994

  Mr. FROST. Mr. Speaker, it is my distinct pleasure to announce that 
Paul Lawrence Dunbar High School in Fort Worth, TX, became the first 
school in the history of University Interscholastic League State 
academic competitions to win the science and computer science 
competitions in the same year. The students won three gold medals in 
computer science, five golds in the science category and one silver in 
current events.
  This achievement is a prime example of what our young people can do 
given the determination and encouragement. Too often we hear and read 
about the students who get in trouble or drop out of school. We need to 
be reminded of students like these at Dunbar who strive for excellence 
and pay tribute to their accomplishments.
  I salute the teachers and students of Dunbar High School and 
congratulate them for their academic excellence: The teachers are 
Lillian Estes, Gary Hicks, Patricia Martin, Donna Redding, Dotti 
Rosson, Dinesh Shah, and Carolyn Turner; and the students are Spencer 
Chang, John Dallas, Robert Gordon, Clay Stevenson, Thai Tran, Tung 
Tran, Ashwin Vasan, and Jason Yandell.
