HONORING JANICE JORDAN
(Mr. MRVAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. MRVAN. Mr. Speaker, it is with great respect that I rise to
celebrate Women's History Month and its 2025 theme ``Moving Forward
Together! Women Educating and Inspiring Generations.''
I would like to honor Ms. Janice Jordan, a lifelong educator who
shaped the lives of countless students as a teacher and administrator
at the School City of East Chicago for 33 years.
Since 2023, Ms. Jordan has taught preschoolers at St. Mark Early
Learning Academy, a Head Start facility in Gary, Indiana.
Outside of the classroom, Ms. Jordan is an active member of the Mount
Moriah Missionary Baptist Church, a sister of the Delta Sigma Theta
Sorority, and a volunteer with the Gary Literacy Coalition,
demonstrating her unwavering commitment to community service and
education.
Her philosophy in life is ``Set the atmosphere, engage the community,
and get to work!''
As we celebrate Women's History Month, let us follow Ms. Jordan's
philosophy and recognize the service of so many extraordinary women who
have dedicated their lives to education, mentorship, and leadership.
