“In the spirit of National Teacher Appreciation Week, I wish to take a moment to recognize a teacher from the Foresthill Union School District, Anne Jones, who has dedicated 35 years of her career to educating the students of her community. Mrs. Jones has been a devoted and passionate first grade teacher, and she has inspired generations of the community's young scholars with her warmth, patience, and with her clear passion for education. She goes beyond teaching her students the fundamentals of reading and math and also instills values in them that are invaluable for the learning community--the values of kindness, gratitude, and creativity. She brings joy and cheer to the classroom and creates an environment in which students feel emboldened to explore their ideas and express themselves, which helps facilitate their academic and personal growth. It is a true honor to represent exemplary teachers in Congress, and I commend Mrs. Anne Jones for her more than three decades of dedication to education and to promoting student success and academic achievement. Therefore, on behalf of the United States House of Representatives, I am pleased to recognize Mrs. Anne Jones for her significant contributions to Foresthill Union School District and to the students of the Foresthill community.
