                 CONGRATULATIONS A.C. STEERE ELEMENTARY

  (Mr. FLEMING asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. FLEMING. Mr. Speaker, it is a great accomplishment when a school 
is honored for having a principal of the year or a teacher of the year 
or even a student of the year. A.C. Steere Elementary School in 
Shreveport has all three.
  Congratulations to Principal Kim Derrick, who was named Caddo Parish 
Principal of the Year. Her passion for education has been instrumental 
in making A.C. Steere a great neighborhood school.
  The third grade language arts teacher, Glynis Johnston, is the Caddo 
Parish Teacher of the Year. Each day she brings a positive, 
motivational, and innovative approach to her classroom.
  The fruit of the labor of a great principal and excellent teacher is 
often seen in the accomplishments of their students, and fifth-grader 
Tindol Hamm is a fine example. She is a gifted young lady who was named 
Caddo Parish Student of the Year. Tindol works hard at academics, and 
she is active in her church and in sports.
  Congratulations, A.C. Steere Elementary. I am proud to see you 
rewarded for your excellence.
