  Ms. SINEMA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Father Edward 
Arthur Reese, President of Brophy College Preparatory, one of the most 
prestigious and successful Jesuit educational institutions for young 
men in Arizona. For the past 20 years, Father Reese has been the anchor 
and backbone of this school and the larger Catholic community in 
Phoenix. He retires at the end of this academic year and leaves behind 
a legacy of educational excellence, community service and true 
dedication to his faith.
  Father Reese will be remembered for his bold vision, bringing a 
culture of innovation to the entire Brophy community. The highlights of 
his vision are reflected in his founding of the Loyola Academy, a 6th, 
7th and 8th grade middle school on the Brophy campus which offers a 
Jesuit education to underserved students with academic and leadership 
potential at no cost to them.
  Additionally he is leaving for St. Ignatius of Loyola High School in 
San Francisco and taking his legacy of technology in the classroom with 
faculty and students free to experiment, leaning forward to learn while 
preparing for the future without fear. We wish Father Reese the very 
best as he takes on a new challenge and we thank him for his tremendous 
contribution to our community.
