                      Thursday, September 17, 2015

  Mr. GOODLATTE. Mr. Speaker, for 25 years, Blue Ridge Christian School 
in Bridgewater, Virginia, has provided a high quality, value-based 
Christian education to students. I am proud to represent an excellent 
institution of learning like Blue Ridge Christian School in the U.S. 
House of Representatives. As their programs have expanded in size and 
scope, diversity in both denominations and heritage has also grown. 
Staying true to the principles of their founding families, Blue Ridge 
Christian School has continuously maintained a strong commitment to 
academic excellence.
  Today, the school is preparing to expand their mission by 
constructing a new campus. At the same time they will create a new 
relationship with another Christian institution of learning in the 
Sixth Congressional District, Liberty University in Lynchburg, 
Virginia. This new partnership will be beneficial to the students and 
further expand the opportunities available through Blue Ridge Christian 
School.
  I commend Blue Ridge Christian School as it marks its silver 
anniversary with an ambitious plan for growth that remains true to its 
Christian mission. I am hopeful that its next 25 years will be filled 
with fine opportunities for its students to make their mark on their 
hometowns, our nation, and the world beyond our borders. Go Bears!
