                                 ______
                                 

                              HON. TED POE

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, November 15, 2007

  Mr. POE. Madam Speaker, the staff and students at Brill Elementary 
School, in Klein Independent School District, set a goal for their 
physical fitness program and worked hard to achieve it.
  As a result of their perseverance and determination, Brill has been 
awarded the title of Physical Activity and Fitness Honor Roll School by 
President George Bush's Challenge Program.
  Brill received this honor by serving as a national demonstration 
school in physical fitness and sports for the past three years. During 
this time, other schools looked to Brill as having the model physical 
fitness program.
  I commend the students, faculty and staff of Brill Elementary for 
their dedication to physical fitness. I would especially like to 
recognize the efforts of physical education teachers Darlene Sentesi, 
Jack Hall and April Holbrook.
  This elementary school is the only one in Texas to be considered a 
national demonstration school and to be awarded the honor roll 
distinction.
  I am proud of the faculty at Brill Elementary for their commitment to 
the well-being and health of its students.
  And that's just the way it is.
