  Ms. WOOLSEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the 50th anniversary 
of Terra Linda High School in San Rafael, California. The school's 
Golden Anniversary was celebrated on May 28, 2011, by a gathering of 
three generations of proud Terra Linda alumni.
  Since its founding, Terra Linda High School has provided thousands of 
Marin County children the firm and balanced footing they deserve, and 
it has played an integral role in the strength and success of San 
Rafael and Marin County. The school upholds high standards in education 
and extracurriculars, balancing a host of advanced placement offerings 
with the art, music, and athletic activities that truly enrich the 
learning experience. Terra Linda and schools like it remind us of the 
limitless potential of our system of public education when students are 
provided the resources they need to excel.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask you to join me in celebrating the 50th anniversary 
of Terra Linda High School. Few institutions are as intimately tied to 
our national identity as our public schools, and none is more essential 
to our collective future. Terra Linda represents the best of this 
tradition, and I am proud to honor its legacy in our county.
