                        TRIBUTE TO MEREDITH NESS

 Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, I honor Meredith Ness, the Walton 
County Teacher of the Year from Mossy Head Elementary School in 
DeFuniak Springs, FL.
  Meredith's colleagues describe her as possessing the skills and 
dedication of a true leader and note that she is highly respected by 
all at her school. She views herself as a lifelong learner with a love 
for teaching students.
  In Meredith's classes, she uses her knowledge for research in 
education and technology in designing lesson plans to teach her 
students. She currently serves as a professional learning facilitator, 
sponsor of Lego league and robotics club, a teacher mentor, and a 
member of the MHS school improvement team.
  Meredith has been a teacher for 16 years, with the past 8 years at 
Mossy Head Elementary School. She is currently a fourth grade teacher.
  I express my sincere thanks and appreciation to Meredith for all of 
the great work she has done for her students and congratulate her for 
winning this award.
