                              SUZANNE LULL

   Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. Chairman, I rise today to 
honor Suzanne Lull, a teacher whose devotion to education and literacy 
serves as an inspiration for her colleagues and students alike. 
Recently named New Hampshire's Teacher of the Year, Ms. Lull is 
credited with a special ability to involve both parents and the 
community in her students education.
  Ms. Lull began her career in private education, then moved to her 
current position at Washington elementary school. Starting out as a 
fourth grade teacher, she initiated a balanced literacy program that 
integrates reading and writing into all areas of the curriculum. Her 
passion for literacy continued to be evident as she moved to teaching 
younger students with the hopes of inspiring reading education early in 
their academic career.
  Ms. Lull claims she always knew she would be a teacher. Ever the 
educator, she spends her free time working along side her husband in 
his ministry, giving religious instruction to Sunday school children of 
all ages. Suzanne Lull is a tribute to her community and profession, 
and it is an honor and a privilege to serve her in the United States 
Senate.
