  Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, in celebration of Black History 
Month, I rise today to recognize Marvin Williams, an African-American 
from Georgia's 11th Congressional District who has had a major impact 
on his community.
  Quality teachers are vital to ensuring children are afforded the best 
education possible. Mr. Williams is one such educator.
  For the past 30 years, Mr. Williams has worked as a teacher to 
inspire children and help them reach their full potential.
  Marvin currently serves as the Superintendent of the Polk County 
School District and I am grateful for his expertise as a member of my 
Education Advisory Board.
  A gifted musician, Mr. Williams also serves as Minister of Music for 
Thankful Baptist Church in Rome.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing the 
contributions and accomplishments of this great community and church 
leader.
