  Mr. CONNOLLY. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the nominees 
for the 2018-2019 Prince William County Public Schools Principal of the 
Year Award.
  Principals who meet the criteria for the award are those who

innovation, foster cooperation between the school and community by 
maintaining an open dialogue with students, parents, faculty, and 
staff, and exemplify commitment to providing a quality education for 
all students to learn and develop. The selected winner will be named 
the Prince William County Principal of the Year.
  As the second largest school division in the Commonwealth of 
Virginia, Prince William County Public Schools educates 90,000 students 
in ninety-eight schools. The efficiency and impact of these teachers is 
apparent as PWCS ranked the highest in the entire state with their on-
time graduation rate.
  I extend my personal congratulations to the following nominees for 
the 2018-2019 Prince William County Public Schools Principal of the 
Year Award: Neil Beech, Osbourn Park High School; Mary Jane Boynton, 
Parkside Middle School; Hamish Brewer, Fred Lynn Middle School; Kathryn

School; Sheila Huckestein, Saunders Middle School; Richard Nichols,

School; Amy Schott, Rockledge Elementary School; Aerica Williams, River 
Oaks Elementary School.
  Madam Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in commending the 
nominees for 2018-2019 Prince William County Public Schools Principal 
of the Year Award and in thanking them for their dedication and 
leadership to the students, teachers, and faculty to ensure a bright 
future for all who pass through the doors of their schools. Their 
continued service is truly commendable and worthy of our highest 
praise, and their efforts ensure that our Prince William County 
students are provided a world-class education in a vibrant learning 
community.
