  Mr. MEEHAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to mark the 150th Anniversary 
of the Country Day School of the Sacred Heart in Bryn Mawr, 
Pennsylvania.
  Today, the school remains committed to the philosophy envisioned by 
St. Madeline Sophie Barat, founder of the Sacred Heart school network, 
to provide young women with a challenging education, develop their 
faith, and promote a desire to help others.
  The Country Day School of the Sacred Heart has a long tradition of 
fostering the growth of young women into scholars and leaders. By 
offering a strong liberal arts program, the Country Day School of the 
Sacred Heart has helped many young women reach their personal and 
scholastic potential. Students are able to develop academically, 
personally, spiritually and socially through the school's well-rounded 
curriculum.
  I appreciate the dedication of the staff members who work around the 
clock to educate and guide the students. Their persistence has 
empowered generations of young women, helping them attain the skills 
and character to become the leaders that St. Madeline Sophie Barat 
imagined.
  Mr. Speaker, the Country Day School of the Sacred Heart has been 
changing the lives of young women for the past 150 years. I 
congratulate the school and look forward to seeing the excellent work 
it will continue to do in the years to come.
