                         HON. E. CLAY SHAW, JR.

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 25, 2000

  Mr. SHAW. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and pay tribute to 
an outstanding scholar and student leader, Chaim Dov Sacks. Dovi Sacks 
was recently named a Presidential Scholar, an award presented to two 
outstanding students from every U.S. state and territory. The award 
recognizes student leadership, SAT scores, and participation in the 
community. Dovi excelled in all these categories. He is the student 
body president, and a National Merit Scholarship Finalist who received 
a perfect 1600 on his SAT at Pine Crest Academy.
  Dovi has brought further recognition to Fort Lauderdale's prestigious 
Pine Crest Academy. The school has had two Presidential Scholars in the 
past two years, and Dovi is the third in three years, an unprecedented 
feat. Just this year Pine Crest had 3 perfect SAT scores and 32 
graduating seniors planning to attend Ivy League schools.
  I know the House will join me in recognizing and honoring this 
outstanding scholar and wish him continued success as a future leader 
of the country. In addition, I would like to acknowledge Pine Crest 
Academy for their excellence in education and hope for continued 
achievement in teaching.
