  Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to commend an outstanding 
Colorado high school student and leader. This Spring, Brett Sharpe of 
Haxtun High School in Haxtun, Colorado, was named an All-American 
Scholar and a United States National Award in Leadership and Service.
  The United States Achievement Academy presents the All-American 
Scholar Award to those students demonstrating exceptional academic 
discipline. Scholars must receive a grade-point average of 3.3 or 
higher and be selected by a school instructor or counselor.
  The National Award in Leadership and Service is presented only to a 
select group of students nationwide. Recipients must demonstrate 
outstanding scholastics, leadership and student service throughout 
their high school years.
  Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to congratulate Brett Sharpe for his 
truly remarkable scholastic, service, and leadership abilities. With 
confidence, I look forward to his future contributions in America.
