                          TRIBUTE TO SARA HALL

<bullet> Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, today I am pleased to honor Sara 
Hall, the Hardee County Teacher of the Year from Hardee Junior High 
School in Wauchula, FL.
  Sara's colleagues and students describe her as an inspiring teacher 
dedicated to ensuring her students have the opportunity to learn. She 
loves teaching her students English and being a part of their 
excitement when they realize how much they learned throughout the year.
  Sara Hall is a sixth grade English language arts teacher at Hardee 
Junior High School. In addition to her writing, she helped to start the 
Just Us Girls, an extracurricular group for young women that targets 
areas where junior high girls struggle.
  I extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to Sara for her dedication 
to her students. I look forward to learning of her continued success in 
the coming years.<bullet>
