                       Thursday, January 19, 2012

  Mr. MILLER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States 
Congress, it is an honor for me to recognize Jacqueline Jacks as the 
2012 Washington County Rookie Teacher of the Year.
  Ms. Jacks has impacted the lives of many through her contributions as 
Educator of Students with Exceptionalities. Above all, she has earned 
the fondness and respect of her students and the school community. 
Driven by her passion for teaching and her love for children, Ms. Jacks 
is a positive force behind each student's growth of mind, giving them 
the confidence, knowledge, and inspiration necessary for success.
  Ms. Jack's childhood dream was to teach and inspire others, and it 
was not until after raising her three children that this dream came to 
fruition. Her story demonstrates that it is never too late to pursue 
your dreams; it continues to inspire her pupils and her three children, 
Taryn, Clinton, and Ashton.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States Congress, I am proud to 
recognize Jacqueline Jacks on her achievement and contributions in the 
Washington County School District. My wife Vicki joins me in 
congratulating Ms. Jacks, and we wish her all the best.
