                          Tuesday, May 9, 1995
  Mr. STARK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the achievements of 
Ms. Lorraine Hurley who is retiring after 40 years of dedicated service 
to the school children of the 13th Congressional District.
  Ms. Hurley was born and raised in San Lorenzo. She graduated at age 
15 from Hayward High School and dedicated the rest of her life to 
teaching. She taught in the Oakland School District for 10 years and 
then returned to the San Lorenzo Unified School District to teach for 
the next 31 years.
  She has been the recipient of many awards, including the Alameda/
Contra Costa Teacher of the Year. She was a member of Delta Kappa 
Gamma, the Teachers' Honor Society. Ms. Hurley is also an advocate for 
and supporter of her fellow teachers. She was very active in the San 
Lorenzo Teachers' Association and an officeholder in the National 
Education Association. She was chosen to be a mentor/teacher.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to recognize Ms. Lorraine Hurley for her 
commitment to our children and am certain that she will be sorely 
missed.
