                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 12, 2022

  Mr. VALADAO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mrs. Carol 
Taylor for her fifty-year career as a teacher and congratulate her on 
her retirement.
  Mrs. Taylor began teaching in Orange County in 1965. After five years 
in Southern California, she moved to the Central Valley, beginning as a 
teacher at Terra Bella Elementary School. After a brief stint in 
Montana, Mrs. Taylor returned to Terra Bella in 1987 where she has been 
teaching ever since.
  Over the course of her career, Mrs. Taylor has taught thousands of 
children, ranging from pre-school to 4th grade. Through her dedication 
to her students, she was able to provide the educational foundation 
necessary for these children to succeed in both school and in life. 
Many of her former students have gone on to be successful members our 
Central Valley community, with some even becoming teachers themselves.
  Mrs. Taylor plans to spend her well-earned retirement traveling the 
country, visiting friends and family, and spending time with her 
grandchildren. On behalf of everyone in California's 21st congressional 
district, I would like to thank her for fifty years of service to our 
community and wish her a long and happy retirement.
  I ask my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to 
join me in recognizing the career of Mrs. Carol Taylor, a fixture in 
our community and an inspiration to us all.
