                       Thursday, October 6, 2005

  Mr. McKEON. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Dr. Kerry Clegg, a 
school board member for the Sulphur Springs Union Elementary School 
District in my district, for his service as the 2004-2005 President of 
the California School Boards Association.
  As a sixteen year member of the Sulphur Springs Union Elementary 
School District board of trustees, Dr. Clegg served three terms as 
president. In addition, Dr. Clegg served as president and secretary-
treasurer for the Santa Clarita Valley School Trustees Association.
  His contributions to the California School Boards Association have 
distinguished him as instrumental in answering the needs of California 
schools. In addition to his role as president this past year, Dr. Clegg 
served as a representative in CSBA's Delegate Assembly and as an active 
member of CSBA's Board of Directors for four years. Among Dr. Clegg's 
further contributions to the CSBA are his roles on CSBA's Budget 
Committee, Nominating Committee, Policy Platform Committee, Federal 
Issues Council, K-Higher Education Remediation Task Force, and as a 
site validator for CSBA's Golden Bell Awards. In 2004, Dr. Clegg also 
chaired CSBA's Legislative Committee, and this year, he is chairing the 
Joint Task Force on Science, the Education Legal Alliance Steering 
Committee, and the Superintendents Council. His contributions are 
currently reaching a national level as he serves as a delegate to the 
National School Boards Association.
  Dr. Kerry Clegg graduated from the University of California, Los 
Angeles with a doctorate in Biology. Outside of his California School 
Boards Association duties, Dr. Clegg is a biological research manager 
for Sepulveda Research Corporation, and is also the CEO of a local 
Federal Credit Union. He and his wife, Rosanna, have five children.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking Dr. Kerry 
Clegg for his service to the Sulphur Springs Union Elementary School 
District and for his service as president of the California School 
Boards Association.
