                      TRIBUTE TO BRITTINIE JOHNSON

 Mr. RUBIO. Madam President, today I am pleased to honor 
Brittinie Johnson, the Baker County Teacher of the Year at Baker County 
High School in St. Mary, FL.
  Each day, Brittinie looks for opportunities to teach her students to 
be leaders and to grow in character. She believes these skills will 
serve them not only in school, but also translate to their lives 
outside of the classroom. Her students are the inspiration for her 
career as an educator.

  Brittinie teaches culinary arts, one of the most requested courses at 
Baker County High School. She aims to connect her class lessons to real 
life and the workforce and strives to teach more than just academics. 
She is known for impacting not only the lives of her students and their 
families, but also her community.
  Brittinie's love for her students is her reason to maintain high 
expectations for their excellence in school. Over the course of each 
year, her students learn how to operate a cafe within the high school, 
provide meals for the faculty and students, and cater for various 
community events.
  I offer my best wishes to Brittinie for her commitment to helping her 
students succeed in school and look forward to hearing of her continued 
good work in the years to come.
