                       TRIBUTE TO TONYA GAMBRELL

 Mr. OSSOFF. Madam President, I rise to honor an exemplary 
member of the Appling community, Ms. Tonya Gambrell.
  Ms. Tonya Gambrell serves as the principal of North Columbia 
Elementary, where she works each day to engage, enrich, and inspire 
each of her students.
  Last year, thanks to Ms. Gambrell's leadership, North Columbia 
Elementary School was named a National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. 
Department of Education for their overall academic excellence and work 
to reduce learning gaps among their students, a recognition given to 
less than 300 schools nationwide.
  As Georgia's U.S. Senator, I recognize and commend Tonya Gambrell for 
her profound impact on Georgia's children and congratulate North 
Columbia Elementary on this excellent honor.
