                  RECOGNIZING MRS. KRISTY LYNN CAESAR

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. DAVID G. VALADAO

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, August 20, 2024

  Mr. VALADAO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mrs. Kristy Lynn 
Caesar as she is awarded the title of 2024 Tulare County Teacher of the 
Year by the Tulare County Office of Education.
  Mrs. Caesar received her undergraduate degree and teaching 
certification from National Louis University and her master's degree 
from Walden University. Mrs. Caesar's career with the Lindsay Unified 
School District began at the Reinventing Schools Coalition, where she 
helped implement a learner-centered environment. In 2012, Mrs. Caesar 
accepted a full-time offer from the Lindsay Unified School District to 
teach kindergarten and help advance the district's vision and strategic 
design.
  Throughout her career, Mrs. Caesar has been dedicated to educational 
innovation, helping to improve the district's standard of education. 
Mrs. Caesar has been steadfast in her commitment to the educational 
outcomes of all students in the Lindsay community. She has collaborated 
with other school districts to share her expertise and help elevate the 
quality of education for their students. Mrs. Caesar has also dedicated 
her time to improving the lives of students outside of the classroom as 
a board member of the Dollars for Scholars and the Lindsay High School 
Booster Club.
  This year, Mrs. Caesar is being recognized for her significant 
contributions to Lincoln Elementary School and the district as the 
Tulare County Teacher of the Year. This award is a true testament to 
her dedication and leadership to students for more than 20 years as an 
educator. It is because of the commitment of teachers in the Lindsay 
Unified School District like Mrs. Caesar that students in the Central 
Valley community flourish, and I want to thank her for creating a 
learning environment that helps our youth become the best they can be.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues in the House of Representatives to 
join me in celebrating Mrs. Kristy Lynn Caesar as she is awarded the 
title of 2024 Tulare County Teacher of the Year. Her commitment to the 
educational outcomes of all students in Tulare County will be felt for 
generations to come.
