  Mr. LIPINSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Chandler 
Hatch, a senior at Lyons Township High School in LaGrange, Illinois. On 
June 22, 2003, Chandler will receive the Presidential Scholars 
Medallion from the Department of Education.
  Chandler was selected by a 32 member commission from a field of over 
2,600 candidates. The commission honors students based on their 
academic achievements, leadership abilities, community service, and 
continued commitment to excellence. Chandler will be awarded as part of 
the 39th Class of Presidential Scholars.
  In addition to winning this award, Chandler was able to invite a 
teacher who has proven to be most influential and inspiring. Chandler 
selected Mr. Peter Notier, a distinguished English literature teacher 
at Lyons Township High School.
  I would like to recognize Mr. Notier for his continued commitment to 
education and proven excellence in teaching. I commend Mr. Notier for 
his dedication and outstanding service in the field of education.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing both 
Chandler and Peter and wish them success in the future.
