  Mr. RYAN of Wisconsin. Madam Speaker, I would like to take this 
opportunity to recognize and congratulate Ms. Karen Nesbit of Franklin, 
Wisconsin. Ms. Nesbit was recently awarded the 2008 Presidential Award 
for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. The Presidential 
Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching Program 
recognizes outstanding teachers across the country for their 
contributions to the academic and personal development of students in 
science and mathematics.
  Ms. Nesbit has been an educator for 23 years. She has taught in the 
Franklin Public School District since 1990, and currently teaches first 
grade at Pleasant View Elementary School. The education of our youth is 
very important to the continued success of our communities and our 
country. It is through the dedication of teachers such as Ms. Nesbit 
that students and are well-equipped with the knowledge and skills they 
need for their future.
  On behalf of those I represent in the 1st District of Wisconsin, I 
extend my gratitude and congratulations to Ms. Karen Nesbit.
