                   NATIONAL TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK

  (Mr. MRVAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. MRVAN. Mr. Speaker, as we celebrated National Teacher 
Appreciation Week earlier this month, I rise to recognize the hard work 
of teachers across northwest Indiana. From the time our children take 
their first steps into a classroom, teachers empower them with 
knowledge and support and serve as inspiring role models.
  As a parent, I am grateful for their devotion to their students, for 
offering stability in an uncertain time, and for their determination to 
ensure that students can thrive in a safe and productive environment.
  I personally thank all the teachers who helped shape me into the 
person I am today.
  I thank Mr. Janich, may he rest in peace, for being an inspiration; 
Mr. Woodward, my government teacher, Mrs. Bliss; and Mrs. Marciniak. 
All of these teachers inspired me to be a better person.
  I also thank my sister, Francis Majchrowicz, who is a teacher molding 
young minds and making sure that students are taken care of.
  Good educators create engaged citizens, and I appreciate the lessons 
and work ethic they helped to instill in me every day.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in thanking all of the impactful teachers 
in northwest Indiana and throughout our Nation as we continue to 
recognize National Teacher Appreciation Week.
