                         Thursday, May 7, 2009

  Mr. McNERNEY. Madam Speaker, I am proud to rise today to congratulate 
the students of Tokay High School in Lodi, California for winning their 
regional Science Bowl competition, hosted by the Department of Energy. 
The National Science Bowl is an academic competition testing students' 
skills in math and science. Only 67 high schools from around the 
country are asked to participate in this National Competition, and 
Tokay students recently visited Washington, DC to compete in the 
national finals. Math, science, and technology education are keys to 
our nation's future, and Tokay's students are an example of excellence. 
I hope that Tokay students continue to participate in the National 
Science Bowl and that I see them back next year.
