                       TRIBUTE TO KEE HIGH SCHOOL

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. TOM LATHAM

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, November 18, 2010

  Mr. LATHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the excellence 
in education in the Fourth Congressional District of Iowa, and to 
specifically congratulate Kee High School in Lansing, Iowa, for making 
the list of the 2010 Blue Ribbon Schools.
  The Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private elementary, 
middle and high schools that are either academically superior or that 
demonstrate dramatic gains in student achievement. Kee High School 
scored in the top ten percent in Iowa with at least 40 percent of their 
students from disadvantaged backgrounds improving their performance on 
state assessments or nationally-normed tests.
  I consider it a great honor to represent Kee High School Principal 
Patrick Heiderscheit, the teachers, students, school board members and 
administrators of Eastern Allamakee Community Schools in the United 
States Congress. I wish Kee High School continued academic excellence 
as they provide a positive impact on future generations to come.
