                         TRIBUTE TO CALEY CLARK

 Mr. DAINES. Mr. President, I wish to recognize Caley Clark, an 
educator from White Sulphur Springs, MT. Ms. Clark has recently been 
chosen from among more than 300 other applicants to participate this 
week in the Library of Congress' Teaching with Primary Sources Summer 
Teacher Institute.
  Every year, the Library of Congress hosts five teacher institutes in 
Washington, DC for a select number of K-12 educators from across the 
Nation. During the Library's Teaching with Primary Sources Summer 
Teacher Institute, Ms. Clark will work with education specialists and 
subject-matter experts about how to best utilize primary sources in the 
classroom. In doing so, she will explore the world's largest online 
collection of historical artifacts, and will be able to access millions 
of unique primary source documents for her work as an educator.
  Teaching with primary source documents is an effective way of 
educating students not just about the history that these firsthand 
sources give us, but also helps students to develop important skills 
like critical thinking. Ms. Clark will have the opportunity to bring 
what she has learned at the Library of Congress back to her students 
and colleagues at White Sulphur Springs School. I am proud to call Ms. 
Clark a fellow Montanan, and to recognize her achievement and her 
contribution to the students of our great State.
