                RECOGNIZING ROCK L. BUTLER MIDDLE SCHOOL

  (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 recognize 
an outstanding group of students from Wellsboro, Pennsylvania.
  The team from Rock L. Butler Middle School recently placed fifth in 
the Nation in this year's Capitol Hill Challenge, a remarkable 
achievement.
  The 16-week financial education competition brings together thousands 
of student teams from across the country, each tasked with investing a 
hypothetical $100,000 in the stock market. The goal: to learn the 
fundamentals of financial literacy, teamwork, and long-term investing.
  Competing against students from every congressional district, the 
Rock L. Butler team stood out not only for their strong returns but for 
their discipline, collaboration, and commitment to learning. Their 
performance reflects the dedication of their teachers and the support 
of the Wellsboro community.
  I had the pleasure of meeting these students during their visit to 
Washington, and I can confidently say the future is in good hands.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the Rock L. Butler Middle School team on 
this incredible accomplishment.
