                  RECOGNIZING WILEY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

  (Ms. ROSS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)

[[Page H2209]]

  

  Ms. ROSS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize an extraordinary 
public school in my district, less than 1 mile from my house, Wiley 
Elementary School.
  For the second time in 5 years, Wiley has been named a top magnet 
elementary school in the Nation for its dedication to excellence.
  It is both an international magnet and a true neighborhood school. A 
diverse and welcoming community, Wiley's teachers, faculty, parents, 
and staff go above and beyond to ensure that every student receives the 
best education possible.
  Wiley offers the International Studies Magnet Program, which allows 
students to take as many as eight electives, including five foreign 
languages, in elementary school. Through this program, students are 
able to learn about cultures other than their own and experience 
diverse perspectives.
  I believe the foundation to a quality education begins in elementary 
school, and I know that Wiley is setting students up for success.
  I am honored to represent Wiley Elementary School in Congress, and I 
am awed by all that their children achieve.
