                       TRIBUTE TO BRITTANY BROWN

 Mr. RUBIO. Madam President, today I honor Brittany Brown, the 
Holmes County Teacher of the Year at Ponce de Leon High School in Ponce 
de Leon, FL.
  Brittany believes her work as an educator is to help her students 
grow and succeed not only in her classroom, but also in their lives. 
She finds the most rewarding part of her work hearing of her students' 
newfound love of science.
  Brittany believes students lose excitement and fascination for 
science by the time they reach high school, making one of her primary 
goals to rekindle the subject with them. She incorporates modern 
scientific equipment and technology in her curriculum to make science 
fun and interesting for her students.
  Brittany teaches biology, agriculture, and aerospace at Ponce de Leon 
High School and has been a science educator for 8 years. She enjoys 
teaching and hopes to pass on her passion for the subject to her 
students.
  I congratulate Brittany for receiving this important recognition. I 
look forward to hearing of her continued success in the coming 
years.
