  Ms. HART. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
congratulate the recipient of the 2005 Milken Family Foundation 
National Educator Award, Jeffrey Sebastian.
  The Milken National Educator Award is the largest teacher recognition 
program in the U.S., and honors K-12 teachers, principals, and 
specialists across America with $25,000 individual awards. Milken 
Educators are recommended by a blue ribbon committee of education and 
policy leaders appointed by each state's department of education. The 
final selections are made in the fall by the Milken Family Foundation.
  Jeffrey Sebastian, a teacher at Quaker Valley High School in 
Leetsdale, Pennsylvania, was one of the recipients. Having received 
this award, Jeffrey will participate in the annual Milken National 
Education Conference this spring in Washington, DC.

  I ask my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to 
join me in honoring Jeffrey Sebastian for all of his hard work in 
education. It is an honor to represent the Fourth Congressional 
District of Pennsylvania and a pleasure to salute such a dedicated 
individual like Jeffrey.
