                       Tuesday, December 20, 2022

  Ms. VAN DUYNE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize St. John the 
Apostle Catholic School in North Richland Hills, Texas, for being just 
one of seven private schools in the state to receive the 2022 Blue 
Ribbon School Award from the Department of Education.
  Last week, St. John Catholic held its award ceremony to celebrate 
this well-deserved accolade. Looking at their exemplary students, 
teachers, and curriculum, it is no surprise they won this award for a 
second time.
  National Blue Ribbon Schools officially recognized St. John Catholic 
for its diverse student population, outstanding outdoor program, and 
exceptional Institute for Excellence in Writing.
  On behalf of our entire community, I would like to thank St. John 
Catholic for equipping the next generation of North Texans with the 
tools necessary to create a better future for North Texas and the 
entire country. I am excited to see what the incredible students of St. 
John Catholic will accomplish in the near future.
