  Mr. KENNEDY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate Mr. Robert T. 
Scott as he is bestowed the prestigious title of President Emeritus of 
St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute.
  Mr. Scott began his career as a religion teacher at St. Joseph's 
Collegiate Institute in 1971. Over time, he served as a social studies 
teacher, vice principal, principal, and then president. In 2001, Mr. 
Scott earned his Letters of Affiliation, the highest honor bestowed by 
the Institute of Brothers of Christian Schools, the religious order 
that founded St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute in 1861. Scott retired 
in 2017 after a tremendous 48-year career at the all-boys high school
  Throughout his career, Mr. Scott has exemplified the mission of St. 
Joseph's Collegiate Institute, to transform the lives of students from 
diverse backgrounds through academic excellence and care for the whole 
person in a respectful, Lasallian Catholic community, developing each 
student's unique talents in preparation for college and life. The 
students that Mr. Scott impacted throughout his tenure have excelled in 
their personal and professional lives in large part due to the 
mentorship and dedication of Mr. Scott.
  Today, Mr. Scott continues to inspire all who know him, sharing his 
compassion and dedication to his family, friends, country, and faith. 
Please join me in congratulating Mr. Robert T. Scott on an inspiring 
career in education, and the continuation of his commitment to 
education and the Lasallian tradition as President Emeritus of St. 
Joseph's Collegiate Institute,
