  Mr. BANKS of Indiana. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize seven 
exceptional students from Whitko High School in South Whitley, Indiana. 
In September 2017, Whitko High School students participated in the 48th 
World School Children's Art Exhibition in Taipei, Taiwan. The 
exhibition is designed to promote artistic exploration and highlight 
the artistic achievements of students from 42 nations.
  I would like to congratulate Whitko High School students Brielle 
Harrison, Megan Licata, Trysten Tucker, Chase Meade, Derek Stouder, and 
Katarina Rojas on being selected to participate in this prestigious 
contest. I also would like to congratulate Julia Seifert, whose 
painting ``Indian Lore'' received a bronze prize.
  On behalf of northeast Indiana, I would like to congratulate these 
young artists on their accomplishments. I know that each of these 
students has a very bright future.
