  Mr. POE of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I would like to recognize the fine 
career and outstanding public service of Dr. Jim Cain, superintendent 
of Klein ISD. Dr. Cain has devoted over 47 years to the education of 
our youth, serving as a teacher, coach, assistant principal, principal, 
instructional officer for technology, director of school 
administration, assistant superintendent and superintendent. He has 
devoted his life to education and bettering our community, and it is 
with great pleasure that I express my admiration and gratitude. I offer 
him my utmost congratulations for his long and successful career.
  Dr. Cain began his career as a teacher, in his home state of 
Illinois, after graduating from the University of Illinois in 1969. He 
then made one the best decisions of his life, he moved to the great 
state of Texas and in 1978 he took his first job at Klein ISD at Benfer 
Elementary. He has served in many different roles during his 36 years 
with the district, 12 of those as superintendent. Dr. Cain has achieved 
recognition and numerous awards at the local, state and federal level 
for his leadership and hands on involvement in the success of the 
students at Klein ISD. Last Thursday, at the Klein ISD staff banquet, 
he received the Lifetime Achievement Award. His dedication has earned 
him the respect and admiration of the teachers, staff and students 
under his supervision as well as the community. His intellect, 
eagerness, and vision will be sincerely missed by not only Klein, but 
the many other communities that he has touched.
  Dr. Cain is a dedicated family man, having been married to his wife 
Susan for 39 years,

and the proud father of two adult children; Ross and Ashley. Dr. Cain 
and Susan are looking forward to traveling and spending time with their 
four grandchildren.
  On behalf of the Second Congressional District of Texas, I commend 
this remarkable leader for his exemplary service and dedication to the 
State of Texas. I thank him for a job well done and I wish him the best 
of luck in the future as he enters into this new phase of life.
