  Mr. GOSAR. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor Lori Markham for being 
chosen as Teacher of the Year by the Yavapai County Education 
Foundation. Lori is a first-grade teacher at Abia Judd Elementary 
School in Prescott, Arizona and she is a shining example of an educator 
who enriches and inspires the students she teaches. Lori is a proud 
graduate of Northern Arizona University and she is currently in her 
24th year of teaching at Judd Elementary school. She has not only 
dedicated her life to educating her students, but also to bettering the 
education system in Yavapai County, serving on many district-level 
committees and as a mentor for new teachers.
  Recounting the reasons she became a teacher, Lori mentions she was 
lucky to have teachers dedicated to her success by not only being role 
models but parental figures and mentors. She has dedicated two decades 
inspiring hundreds of children to try hard and dream big.
  I thank Lori for working tirelessly to educate and uplift students, 
and I celebrate the impact she has had on her local community in 
Yavapai County and the entire state of Arizona.
