  Ms. LORETTA SANCHEZ of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor 
Barbara Noel, a Santa Ana High School teacher, who was recently honored 
with the Bravo Award.
  The Bravo Award was established in 1983 by the Music Center Education 
Division to recognize teachers for creativity and innovation in Arts 
education. Three Bravo Awards are handed out each year: one to a 
school, one to an arts specialist, and one to a general classroom 
teacher.
  Barbara is only the second dance teacher in 22 years to win this 
prestigious award and I am very excited for her. I wish to thank her 
for innovation and dedication in teaching the arts to our school 
children.
