 Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, today I am pleased to recognize 
Cynthia Barrett, the Highlands County Teacher of the Year from Avon 
Park High School in Avon Park, FL.
  Cynthia believes teaching is more than just a job. She holds her 
students to high expectations, knowing they are in advanced classes and 
will soon become leaders throughout their communities. Cynthia 
appreciates this award is more than just a recognition of her hard 
work, but also an acknowledgement of the hard work her students put in 
each day.
  Cynthia teaches AP world history and economics/honors at Avon Park 
High School. She has taught in Highlands County since 1994 and 
previously taught in Leon County from 1989 to 1994. Cynthia is a 
graduate of Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University.
  I offer my sincere gratitude to Cynthia on her dedication to teaching 
students throughout the school year. I look forward to hearing of her 
continued good work in the coming years.
