                       Monday, December 23, 2013

  Mr. McNERNEY. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
honor Bear Creek High School's newspaper, The Bruin Voice, which has 
been recognized as the best in the Nation. The Bruin Voice recently won 
the prestigious National Scholastic Press Association's Pacemaker Award 
for excellence, in addition to receiving Best in Show for its coverage 
of student protests.
  The student journalists at Bear Creek High School put a tremendous 
amount of effort toward producing a newspaper of outstanding quality. 
They have displayed exceptional writing and reporting skills and have 
produced compelling editorials and cartoons. The accomplishments of 
Bear Creek High School's student journalists are emblematic of their 
pursuit of excellence and commitment to their fellow students, faculty 
and our community.
  I urge my colleagues to join me in recognizing Bear Creek High 
School's journalism students, and their extraordinary dedication to 
producing an award-winning newspaper.
