  Mr. DEUTCH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of the 22 outstanding 
teachers from my district who have been awarded the Teacher of the Year 
award from the Rotary Club of Boca Raton Sunrise. These exemplary 
teachers continue to make a profound impact on our students through 
their caring, commitment, and professionalism. They are a cohort 
defined by integrity, excellence, and the highest marks in all they do.
  For the past 28 years, the Rotary Club of Boca Raton Sunrise has 
offered this annual distinction to a teacher at each of the 22 schools 
in the Greater Boca Raton area. Each awardee is selected by his or her 
school's principal. These teachers have dedicated themselves to 
inspiring and empowering the next generation of young South Floridians. 
The amount of time and effort these individuals have expended for the 
betterment of their community is truly admirable and exhibits a level 
of passion worthy of recognition.
  Congratulations to Chris Amico, Jonathan Benskin, Charisse Cason, 
Katie Delucia, Lisa Drescher, Lori Eaton, Dawn Esposito, Jennifer 
Hammer, Alicia Kaucher, Alexandra Laing, Courtney Lockhart, Ana Millet, 
Suzette Milu, Charna Rosenfeld, Beth Rubin, Denise Rudy, Jane Simonsen, 
Doris Vaillancourt-Milano, Kristy Verzaal, Lori Vetter, Cheryl Walling, 
and Ellen Winikoff on receiving this year's Teacher of the Year Award. 
I am happy to honor them, and I know that they will continue to inspire 
South Floridians to live by their example.
