           HONORING BLUEFIELD, VIRGINIA'S GRAHAM HIGH SCHOOL

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. H. MORGAN GRIFFITH

                              of virginia

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 10, 2014

  Mr. GRIFFITH of Virginia. Mr. Speaker, I submit these remarks today 
in honor of Bluefield, Virginia's Graham High School, which is 
celebrating its 100th anniversary.
  Graham High School was first established in 1914 as a secondary 
school, and thousands of students have graduated in the time that has 
passed since its doors first opened a century ago. Obviously, the 
students, staff, and the Graham High School building itself have 
changed over the last 100 years, but the school's tradition of 
excellence has remained constant.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that you and our distinguished colleagues join me 
in congratulating the students, faculty, and alumni of Graham High 
School on its 100th anniversary. As we note the school's great alumni 
and many championships including everything from football and 
basketball to creative writing, may we also take a moment and reflect 
on what is yet to come. I congratulate Graham High School and the 
surrounding community on this exciting milestone, and look forward to 
many more great accomplishments from future Graham G-Men and G-Girls.

                          ____________________
