      RECOGNIZING THE ALL SAINTS CATHOLIC SCHOOL OF DALLAS, TEXAS

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. PAT FALLON

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, January 30, 2023

  Mr. FALLON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commemorate the All Saints 
Catholic School of Dallas, Texas, for receiving its third Blue Ribbon 
award. All Saints Catholic is only one of 5 private schools in the 
great state of Texas to receive this prestigious award. We continue to 
extend our earnest congratulations to the students, educators, and 
families of All Saints Catholic.
  Since 1982, the Department of Education has annually bestowed the 
Blue Ribbon Award to select public and private schools who have 
displayed outstanding academic progress and achievement. All Saints 
Catholic was one of the highest-performing schools in Texas and 
nationwide. Of the nearly 10,000 Blue Ribbons awarded over the past 4 
decades, only 170 schools have had the honor of receiving 3 Blue 
Ribbons, putting All Saints Catholic in the top 1 percent of Blue 
Ribbon recipients.
  All Saints Catholic's historic performances showcases the enduring 
work of its students, teachers, and staff to create a safe and 
welcoming school environment that focuses on success. I'm proud to 
represent such talented minds and I wish them the best of luck in their 
school year.
  I have requested the United States flag be flown over our Nation's 
Capitol to recognize the hard-earned academic accomplishments of All 
Saints Catholic and their efforts to prepare our youth for success.
