           CELEBRATING BRADFORD AREA HIGH SCHOOL'S CENTENNIAL

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the 
100th anniversary of Bradford Area High School in Bradford, 
Pennsylvania, a century of shaping minds, building character, and 
strengthening community.
  Since its founding, BAHS has educated generations of families--
grandparents, parents, and now children walking in the same halls, 
learning from the same dedicated teachers who often return to serve 
their own alma mater.
  It is not just a school. It is a legacy. Recently, the community came 
together to celebrate this proud history. Alumni joined current 
students in the auditorium to perform the school's fight song, bridging 
the past and present in harmony.
  Displays throughout the school showcased 100 years of photos, 
uniforms, and memories, alongside a 1926 time capsule containing a 
Bible, a local newspaper, and a silver peace dollar.
  Mr. Speaker, Bradford Area High School is more than just a structure. 
It is a pillar of the community, and it will continue to shape future 
generations for the next 100 years.
