                       TRIBUTE TO ALANNA ROHLING

 Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, today I honor Alanna Rohling, the 
Escambia County Teacher of the Year from Lincoln Park Elementary School 
in Pensacola, FL.
  Alanna's colleagues describe her as a teacher who embraces students 
with emotional challenges and helps them to succeed through her 
creative teaching style. She has been credited as a significant factor 
of the school's turnaround model to improve students' academic success 
in recent years. She dedicates her time not only to her students, but 
also to their parents, keeping them informed of their students' 
progress throughout the school year.
  Her students' parents are grateful for this dedication, noting she is 
always willing to communicate, no matter the time of day. They believe 
her efforts have resulted in their young students being better prepared 
for future schooling.
  Alanna is a kindergarten teacher and has been at Lincoln Park 
Elementary School since 2015. She also serves as the STEM committee 
cochair, a member of her school's leadership team, and works as a 
mentor to students outside of school.
  I extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to Alanna for her work and 
look forward to hearing of her continued success in the years to 
come.
