                RECOGNIZING SUPERINTENDENT JEFF WENDORF

  (Mrs. SYKES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. SYKES. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to congratulate and announce as 
our champion of the week North Canton City Schools Superintendent Jeff 
Wendorf on his retirement after a 40-year career serving the students 
of North Canton as a teacher, coach, and administrator.
  Since he began serving as the superintendent in 2016, North Canton 
has consistently been ranked as one of the top school districts not 
just in Stark County but throughout the State of Ohio.
  Just last year, the district received a 5-star rating, the highest, 
on its school report card from the Ohio Department of Education for the 
2023-2024 school year.
  Throughout his career, Superintendent Wendorf has led by example, 
demonstrating perseverance, compassion, and dedication for his 
community, all while supporting strong public schools.
  For his outstanding devotion, he earned the respect and esteem of 
many students and educators alike. While his character and decisive 
leadership will be sorely missed, I am confident that his numerous 
contributions will serve as an inspiration for everyone in the wake of 
his departure.

  Congratulations again to Superintendent Jeff Wendorf on his well-
deserved retirement. He is a shining example of why this community is 
known as the ``Birthplace of Champions,'' and I wish him many more 
years of happiness and prosperity.
