                          Friday, May 15, 2020

  Mr. LATTA. Madam Speaker, it is my great pleasure to pay special 
tribute to an outstanding student from Ohio's Fifth Congressional 
District. I am pleased to announce that Samantha Schofield of Maumee, 
Ohio has been offered an appointment to the United States Naval Academy 
in Annapolis, Maryland.
  Samantha's offer of appointment permits her to attend the United 
States Naval Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2024. 
Attending one of our nation's military academies not only offers the 
opportunity to serve our country, but also guarantees a world-class 
education while undertaking one of the most challenging and rewarding 
experiences of their lives.
  Samantha brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2024. While attending Anthony Wayne 
High School in Whitehouse, Ohio, Samantha volunteered for her church, 
Special Olympics, and Toledo Humane Society, while being a member of 
National Honor Society and maintaining a 4.738 GPA.
  Throughout high school, Samantha was involved with soccer and 
basketball, having achieved her varsity letter in both. I am confident 
that Samantha will carry the lessons of her student and athletic 
leadership to the Naval Academy.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating 
Samantha Schofield on her offer of appointment to the United States 
Naval Academy. Our service academies offer the finest military training 
and education available. I am positive that Samantha will excel during 
her career at the Naval Academy, and I ask my colleagues to join me in 
extending their best wishes to her as she begins her service to our 
nation.
