  Mr. ISRAEL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge four students 
in my district, Amanda Prunty, Samantha O'Rourke, Cedric Wilson, and 
Allison Menditto, from Bay Shore High School.
  These students will receive the Honoring Our Future Leaders Award on

the ``I Have a Dream'' speech delivered by Martin Luther King, Jr.
  I am proud to honor Amanda, Samantha, Cedric, and Allison for their 
academic and personal achievements and congratulate them upon the 
receipt of this prestigious award.
