                         ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS

                                 ______
                                 

                TRIBUTE TO CAILLEY AND MEMORABLE FACTOR

 Mr. GRAHAM. Mr. President, Le Grand Concours French 
competition consists of oral and written portions and is given by the 
American Association of Teachers of French to over 100,000 students 
learning French in all 50 States and abroad.
  The MathFest was created in 2001 to provide an extended math 
initiative that would motivate students, parents, and teachers to raise 
the standards and expectations in math. This year the South Carolina 
MathFest was held in Columbia, and 4,000 math students from around the 
State participated in the competition.
  I would like to take a moment to recognize and honor Cailley Factor 
of Charleston County for winning first place in the second division at 
the State MathFest competition and for being named a national champion 
of Le Grand Concours 2010 French competition. Additionally, I would 
like to recognize Memorable ``Mem'' Factor of Charleston County for 
winning first place in the first grade division at the State MathFest 
competition and for being named a national champion of Le Grand 
Concours 2010 French competition. This is the first time in the history 
of the competition that siblings have been named winners in the same 
year.
  The achievements of both Cailley and Memorable Factor serve as an 
example which all students should strive towards. I applaud them both 
in their accomplishments and look forward to their future 
success.
