                 TRIBUTE TO LOUISVILLE MALE HIGH SCHOOL

                                 ______


                             HON. MIKE WARD

                              of kentucky

                    in the house of representatives

                         Wednesday, June 7, 1995
  Mr. WARD. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
congratulate the outstanding performance of Louisville Male High School 
from Louisville, KY, in the ``We the People . . . The Citizen and the 
Constitution'' national competition which was held in Washington, DC, 
April 29-May 1. These outstanding young people competed against 49 the 
classes from throughout the Nation and demonstrated a remarkable 
understanding of the fundamental ideals and values of American 
constitutional government.
  This program is administered by the Center for Civic Education and is 
one of the most extensive of its kind. In its 8-year history the 
program has reached more than 20 million students in elementary, middle 
and high school. The competition at the national level simulates a 
congressional hearing during which students testify as constitutional 
experts before a panel of judges. I applaud this program and, as a 
result, these students for their participation in an invaluable 
educational experience.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that a copy of the list of participants which I am 
submitting be placed in the Congressional Record. I hope that the 
students of Male High School will continue their interest in 
Government.
  The competing class was from Louisville Male High School. The teacher 
was Sandra Hoover. The students were as follows: Shannon Bender, Josh 
Bridgwater, Shilo Burke, Katie Callender, Scott Embry, Jessi 
Followwill, Adam Greenwell, John Grissom, Christy Jones, Jonathan 
Keith, Stephanie McAlmont, Stephen McAlmont, Shannon McMillan, Travis 
Moore, Kristi Mosier, Adam Pedigo, Melanie Rapp, Amber Rowan, Chris 
Rutledge, Shannon Simms, Eric Stevens, April Stivers, Ricky Suel, 
Danyaun Vandgrift, and Shaniqua Wade. The State coordinator was Tami 
Dowler. The district coordinator was Tommy Dowler.
