                  CONGRATULATING TRUMBULL HIGH SCHOOL

 Mr. LIEBERMAN. Mr. President, I would like to take this 
opportunity to congratulate a class of students from Trumbull High 
School in Trumbull, CT, who won an award at the ``We the People * * * 
The Citizen and the Constitution'' national finals held in Washington, 
DC. These students, under the direction of their teacher, Rita Altieri, 
were recognized for their expertise on unit 6, ``Role of Citizen'' of 
the ``We the People * * *'' curriculum. This award is given to the 
school achieving the highest cumulative score during the first 2 days 
of the national finals in each of the six units.
  I hope my colleagues will join with me in recognizing these 
outstanding young Americans who competed against 50 other classes from 
all across the Nation. They have clearly demonstrated a remarkable 
understanding of the fundamental ideals and values of American 
constitutional government.
