                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, February 17, 2023

  Mr. GAETZ. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Mrs. Roslyn Chatman as 
the 2022-2023 Walton County Educational Support Professional of the 
Year. Since 2008, Mrs. Chatman has served the Walton County School 
District with exceptional passion and an unwavering commitment to 
serving others.
  In Northwest Florida, we are fortunate to have some of the best 
educational support professionals in the Nation. It is recognized that 
the position of Paraprofessional can be taxing but can also be so 
rewarding. Mrs. Chatman has performed her many duties without question 
or hesitation and does so with an encouraging smile towards all those 
she encounters.
  Mrs. Chatman is revered by her principal and colleagues for her 
positive attitude and willingness to go above and beyond the scope of 
her job duties. She selflessly considers the needs of both students and 
staff because of the immense pride she has for her school.
  Her support and outreach extend far beyond the hearts and minds of 
her own students through her willingness to help wherever assistance is 
needed. Mrs. Chatman has displayed dedicated teamwork by assisting with 
after-school events, including Title I Nights, carnivals, and tutoring. 
I commend her for her steadfast willingness to serve as an example for 
those that matter most, the students and youth of our Nation.
  For all of these admirable contributions, I am truly proud to have 
Mrs. Chatman as a constituent in Florida's First Congressional 
District.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States Congress, I am privileged 
to recognize Mrs. Roslyn Chatman for her accomplishments and her 
commitment to excellence, professionalism, and innovation in the Walton 
County School District. I thank her for her service and wish her all 
the best for continued success.
