                       Tuesday, February 6, 2001

  Mr. LUCAS of Kentucky. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of 
Silver Grove High School. This is a success story about a school in a 
high poverty district that has overcome adversity and has become one of 
the models in education reform.
  Silver Grove High School is one of eight schools to be recognized by 
Kentucky's Commissioner of Education for its outstanding performance in 
Kentucky's state testing program. Silver Grove High performed so well 
that it has become a model of the best Kentucky's public schools have 
to offer.
  I rise today to commend Silver Grove High School and all of the 
educators, staff and students of this fine educational institution. I 
ask you to join me in congratulating Silver Grove High School and the 
entire community of Silver Grove on their achievements.

                          ____________________
