  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor Jaclyn Easter, a 
middle school science teacher at Bergman Academy School in Des Moines. 
Jaclyn received the Maitland P. Simmons Memorial Award for New Science 
Teachers.
  This award, from the National Science Teaching Association, is given 
to only 25 outstanding teachers from around the country and provides 
mentorship, tracking and continuing opportunities for meaningful 
involvement with NSTA, and Science, Technology, Engineering, 
Mathematics (STEM) professional development.
  I applaud and congratulate Jaclyn for her award and for providing the 
youth in Iowa's 3rd Congressional District the education that they will 
need to be successful in the future. I am proud to represent her, her 
fellow teachers and students in the United States Congress. I know that 
my colleagues join me in congratulating Jaclyn Easter and wishing her 
well and continued success in the future.
