  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, I wish to commemorate the Sophronia M. 
Tompkins High School Class of 1966 on celebrating their 40th class 
reunion.
  Sophronia M. Tompkins High School was built in 1955 where a dedicated 
group of educators shaped the lives of hundreds of forthright men and 
women. Although the school as it was once known is no longer standing, 
the students that gained life-changing lessons in this learning 
institution have not forgotten the ideals taught.
  This institution has brought forth playwrights, educators, 
entrepreneurs, nurses, civil servants, ministers, and public servants 
who credit their tenure at Sophronia M. Tompkins High School to 
launching their futures.
