                RECOGNIZING COMMUNITY CHRISTIAN ACADEMY

  (Mr. DAVIS of Kentucky asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of Kentucky. Madam Speaker, I rise this evening to 
recognize the achievements of Community Christian Academy in 
Independence, Kentucky.
  Founded in 1983 by the Community Pentecostal Church, the academy was 
born out of a strong desire to provide a first-rate education rooted in 
the fundamentals of Christianity. What began as a small school has 
grown into one of the most respected private schools in northern 
Kentucky.
  The academy offers curriculum from kindergarten through high school. 
Recent years have seen the school and its facilities grow by leaps and 
bounds, becoming a fixture in the community. CCA is accredited through 
the International Christian Accrediting Association and the Non-Public 
School Commission of Kentucky.
  The academy is known for its family-oriented atmosphere that 
emphasizes the participation of the entire family in the education of 
their 200 students.
  Recently, CCA was recognized by Cincinnati Magazine as one of the 
best private high schools in the greater Cincinnati area. This 
achievement would not be possible without the support of an outstanding 
staff and faculty, guided by Principal Tara Bates.
  I am pleased to recognize the achievements of students, parents and 
educators at the Community Christian Academy. For over 20 years, CCA 
has produced highly educated students in God's image. Tonight, I would 
ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing their commitment to 
excellence in education, dedication to their students and to thank them 
for their contributions to our community.
