                        Tuesday, March 18, 2003

  Ms. GINNY BROWN-WAITE of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate an outstanding school in the 5th Congressional District of 
Florida. Educating our Youth is one of the most important challenges 
that we as a nation face. The founders of Wider Horizons School have 
embraced this challenge with a vigor and dedication that has left a 
strong impression on the community which they serve.
  On Friday, March 14th, Wider Horizons School will celebrate its 20th 
Anniversary. Founded in 1983, Wider Horizons was the brain child of two 
individuals who cut their teeth in the Peace Corps opening schools in 
the jungles of Peru. Their formula for success includes a focus on 
independent learning, international field trips, and instruction in 
Spanish beginning in preschool.
  I am proud to call Mr. and Mrs. Domenick constituents. They and their 
staff serve as examples to us all of what it means to truly be public 
servants.
