GA-12 NATIONAL SCIENCE BOWL PARTICIPANTS
(Mr. ALLEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. ALLEN. Mr. Speaker, over this past weekend the 2019 National
Science Bowl finals took place down the road in Chevy Chase, Maryland.
I am proud to rise here this evening to congratulate Stallings Island
Middle School and Lakeside High School--both located in Georgia's 12th
district--for their students' stellar performance in this year's
competition.
The path to the finals is no easy task. With over 1,000 high schools
and nearly 650 middle schools participating in the regional tournaments
nationwide, these Georgia-12 students worked hard to advance to the
finals and compete at the national level. The students' brilliance
solving technical problems and answering questions about all branches
of science and math is truly incredible.
I would like to thank and congratulate the educators, coaches, and
especially the bright young students of Stallings Island Middle School
and Lakeside High School who made this tremendous run possible.
Georgia-12 is certainly proud, and we look forward to cheering them
on again next year.
