                EDUCATION IS THE LIFELINE FOR THE FUTURE

  (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, recently I traveled to six 
counties in my district and looked at different aspects of education, 
ranging from Title I funds, STEM, school nutrition, and physical 
education, to providing safe learning environments.
  Mr. Speaker, after speaking with many students, I learned that they 
are seeking new opportunities to live their dreams, and they tend to 
respond best to caring adults such as parents, guardians, teachers, 
coaches, custodians, and even bus drivers.
  During my visits, I also was honored to serve as a teacher assistant 
at Central Elementary in Northampton County.
  Ms. Leanna Cahoon, also known by her students as Ms. C, stayed busy 
as ever, grading tests, helping students with math and spelling, and 
assisting classrooms when needed. We must applaud not only Ms. C, but 
all teacher assistants and educators.
  Mr. Speaker, education is a lifeline for the future, and we must 
provide the resources for our students to succeed because, after all, 
our young minds will be the ones who will transform not only eastern 
North Carolina but America forever.
