                        TRIBUTE TO ROB PASCHALL

 Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, today I recognize Rob Paschall, the 
Orange County Teacher of the Year at West Creek Elementary School in 
Orlando, FL.
  Rob has been an educator for 27 years and currently teaches fifth 
grade at West Creek Elementary School. In the past year, more than 80 
percent of Rob's students demonstrated learning gains, one of many 
measurable changes credited to his teaching practices. Outside of the 
classroom, Rob regularly sponsors the school safety patrols, serves as 
a teacher liaison for the PTA, and works closely with the Florida 
Department of Education's Writing Rangefinder Committee.
  Throughout his educational career, Rob looks to find at least one 
success each day worth celebrating. He believes in teaching 
intentionally and works to understand his student's unique learning 
styles. Rob develops lesson plans designed to meet the needs of each 
student, highlighting their strengths and finding areas in need of 
improvement.
  Colleagues describe Rob as a humble teacher that enjoys educating 
younger generations. He strives to help his students improve each day 
and attributes their growth and success to their dedication and hard 
work.
  I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Rob for his strong 
commitment to his students. I look forward to hearing of his continued 
good work in the years to come.
