      CONGRATULATIONS, DALLASTOWN ELEMENTARY AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT

  (Mr. SMUCKER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. SMUCKER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the faculty, 
staff, and students of Dallastown Elementary School in the Dallastown 
Area School District on being recognized as a 2020 National Blue Ribbon 
School.
  The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program was founded nearly 40 years 
ago to recognize outstanding public and private schools that are making 
a difference and exemplify excellence. Dallastown Elementary was 
recognized as an Exemplary High Performing School.
  I thank Dallastown Area Superintendent Dr. Joshua Doll, the school 
board, and the leadership and teachers at Dallastown Elementary for 
working so hard for this achievement. In their application, school 
principal Charles Patterson noted that one of the distinguishing 
characteristics he sees about Dallastown Elementary is that they have 
built a school family. The quality education these students receive 
prepares them for success throughout the rest of their lives.
  Congratulations, again, to Dallastown Elementary School for being 
named a 2020 National Blue Ribbon School.
