                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 13, 2004

  Mr. SMITH of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor Dale Koroluck, an 
exceptionally bright young man who has been awarded the President's 
Award for Educational Excellence for 2003.
  Dale is an inquisitive, high energy, intelligent student who will be 
entering the. eighth grade at Amelia Earhart Middle School in the fall. 
He excels academically among his peers and also consistently 
demonstrates the motivation, initiative, integrity, leadership 
qualities and exceptional judgment that set him apart from his fellow 
students.
  Although Dale's favorite subjects are math and science, he truly 
enjoys engaging in debate and public speaking. He hopes that his 
budding litigation skills will someday prove useful while attending law 
school. Dale also likes to play football and basketball, and he has 
trained to earn his first degree-black belt in Taekwondo.
  On behalf of the United States Congress, we offer our congratulations 
to Dale for earning this prestigious academic award and applaud him for 
his tenacity to learn. Dale is passionate in all of his endeavors and 
serves as a fine role model for his peers.
  We also extend our compliments to Dale's wonderful parents, Kay and 
Daryl, and his brother Dillon. I suspect that it is very likely that 
Dale and Dillon will follow in the family tradition of being involved 
in public service and possibly someday run for public office.
