COMMENDING THE STUDENTS, TEACHERS, PARENTS AND SUPPORT STAFF OF SUZANNE 
                             MIDDLE SCHOOL

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. GARY G. MILLER

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 21, 2001

  Mr. GARY G. MILLER of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise to commend the 
students, teachers, parents, and support staff of Suzanne Middle School 
on being named a 2001 California Distinguished School.
  Suzanne Middle School, located in Walnut, California, is part of the 
Walnut Valley School District. Home to 1,300 sixth, seventh, and 
eighth-graders, its student body is representative of California's 
diverse culture. But despite the various backgrounds represented, each 
student is expected to contribute a learning environment which demands 
high expectations.
  The teachers and staff of this school are committed to giving 
``whatever it takes'' to meet the needs of their students. This goal 
frequently requires involving the parents and community in school 
activities.
  The combination of high expectations for students, committed teachers 
and staff, and parental involvement has made Suzanne Middle School one 
of America's Distinguished Schools.
