                           HON. FRANK R. WOLF

                         Tuesday, June 6, 2006

  Mr. WOLF. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commend the Chantilly High 
School National Economics Challenge Team for their tremendous success 
in this year's competition. The Chantilly High team, comprised of 
students Adriana Medina, Natalie Mutchler, Alex Pepper and Sam Perkins, 
and their teacher/adviser, Joseph Clement, should be extremely proud of 
being named runner-up in the David Ricardo Division of the National 
Economics Challenge. The students from Chantilly High School have the 
distinction of being one of the top four teams in a national 
competition involving more than 1000 teams.
  The National Council on Economic Education and the Goldman Sachs 
Foundation established the Challenge in 2000 to provide a competitive 
format to test the knowledge of the best economics students in the 
country. The NCEE's mission is to improve economics education in grades 
K-12 through teacher training and development of instructional 
materials.
  I ask that my colleagues join me in recognizing the Chantilly High 
School Economics Challenge Team for their outstanding accomplishment.
