                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, May 11, 2010

  Mr. BISHOP of Utah. Madam Speaker, from April 24-26, 2010 more than 
1,200 students from across the country visited Washington, D.C. to take 
part in the We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution National 
Finals.
  I am proud to announce that a class from Sky View High School 
represented the State of Utah at this prestigious national event. These 
outstanding students, through their knowledge of the U.S. Constitution, 
won their statewide competition and earned the chance to come to our 
nation's capital and compete at the national level. At the National 
Finals, Sky View High School won the Unit One Award by earning the most 
points in that unit of the textbook, which discusses the philosophical 
and historical foundations of the American political system.
  I also wish to commend the teacher of the class, Mike Rigby, who is 
responsible for preparing these young constitutional experts for the 
National Finals. Also worthy of special recognition are Kathy Dryer, 
the State coordinator and Shanna Futral, the district coordinator who 
are responsible for implementing the We the People program in my 
district.
  I congratulate these young ``constitutional experts'' on their 
outstanding achievement at the We the People National Finals.
