            CELEBRATING WINNERS OF 2024 CONGRESSIONAL APP CHALLENGE

      The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Bresnahan). The Chair recognizes the
    gentlewoman from New Jersey (Mrs. McIver) for 5 minutes.
      Mrs. McIVER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the New Jersey-10
    winners of the 2024 Congressional App Challenge.
      Aman, Alexa, Charlie, and Gabriel teamed up to make Tailored Trivia.
    The app allows users to create customized trivia games that make
    studying and memorization more interactive. This tool lets students
    test SAT vocabulary words, learn phrases in new languages, and quiz
    their classmates.
      In creating this app, Aman, Alexa, Charlie, and Gabriel also grew
    their skills in coding, design, and teamwork.
      I am so proud of their hard work, dedication, and contributions to
    New Jersey, and I am excited to see what they will accomplish next.

                           Celebrating Sahli Negassi

      Mrs. McIVER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to celebrate Sahli, a New Jersey-10
    student at West Orange High School who received a perfect score on the
    SAT this year.
      Less than 1 percent of SAT test takers earn a perfect score each
    year, and Sahli's accomplishment is nothing short of extraordinary. His
    SAT preparation was largely self-directed, relying on free resources
    and using his time and determination to study for the exam.
      Beyond academics, he is deeply involved in extracurricular activities
    at West Orange High School. He has been a dedicated member of the
    cross-country and track teams since seventh grade and spent two seasons
    on the color guard.
      Sahli is also the president of the math team, chapter president of
    the National Honor Society, a varsity chess team member, and part of
    the Royal Strings Ensemble. His involvement in multiple activities and
    honor societies speaks to his well-rounded excellence.
      After graduating high school, Sahli hopes to attend Harvard and study
    law. Any school would be lucky to have such a bright young mind. What
    an incredible accomplishment and a shining example of New Jersey's
    excellence. I congratulate Sahli. He makes New Jersey proud.
