                                 ______

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, October 28, 1999

  Mr. PORTMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my constituents, Jan 
and Tim Johnson, who will be recognized at a gala dinner and pageant on 
Saturday, October 30, 1999 for their many contributions to the 
prestigious Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy (CHCA) located in Mason, 
Ohio.
  CHCA is one of the fastest-growing schools in the country, and has 
earned a reputation for excellent academics, competitive sports and 
extracurricular activities. In 1997, I had the privilege of presenting 
the U.S. Department of Education's Blue Ribbon School Award to CHCA 
Elementary. CHCA's goal is to nurture and support each student toward 
individual growth. The school embraces students, parents and faculty 
within the care of a Christian community.
  Jan and Tim Johnson were early supporters of CHCA and tirelessly 
volunteer their time to the school and to the Cincinnati community in 
general. They have four children, two of whom graduated from CHCA.
  Tim, a professor of Finance at the University of Cincinnati, has been 
an invaluable resource and serves as the Finance Chair for the CHCA 
Board of Trustees.

  Jan is also a member of the CHCA Board, served on early faculty 
search committees and was a member of the Education Committee for four 
years. In addition to all this, she has served on numerous ad hoc and 
PTF committees.
  Jan and Tim Johnson are to be commended for their tireless devotion 
to their community and I congratulate them on this well-deserved honor.
