                        TRIBUTE TO JOLI HARTZOG

 Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, today I honor Joli Hartzog, the 
Washington County Teacher of the Year at Florida Panhandle Technical 
College in Chipley, FL.
  Joli has been a teacher for more than 26 years. She is the adult 
education director and instructor for the Florida Panhandle Technical 
College and offers instruction for several programs at the school. Joli 
teaches all levels of students, including those seeking high school 
equivalency, professional testing preparation, personal enrichment, or 
other specialized certification.
  Enrollment at Florida Panhandle Technical College remains open 
throughout the year so the environment and format of Joli's class is 
ever-changing. She works with students ranging from 16 to 66 years old 
who are working towards their GED, and she is able to modify her 
teaching style to match the composition of the current class. She is 
willing to meet with her students anytime, whether when they arrive in 
her classroom, after class, or by appointment.
  Joli finds the best part of teaching to be the family she has found 
at the school. She enjoys working with her fellow instructors and 
faculty and says they all work as a team. Joli considers this family to 
extend to her students and loves that she is able to help them achieve 
their life dreams.
  I offer my sincere gratitude to Joli for her dedication to her 
students and extend my best wishes on her continued success in the 
years to come.
