                RECOGNIZING WHITEWOOD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I recognize Whitewood 
Elementary School for being named a 2008 No Child Left Behind-Blue 
Ribbon School. The commitment to quality education that has been shown 
by the faculty, teachers and students at Whitewood Elementary School is 
truly invaluable in shaping the future leaders of this country. The 
work that they are doing to meet higher achievement standards and 
greater accountability serves as a model to other schools throughout 
our State and Nation.
  Again, congratulations to Whitewood Elementary School for being named 
a blue ribbon school and for making South Dakota proud.
