“Over this past weekend the 2019 National Science Bowl finals took place down the road in Chevy Chase, Maryland. I am proud to rise here this evening to congratulate Stallings Island Middle School and Lakeside High School--both located in Georgia's 12th district--for their students' stellar performance in this year's competition. The path to the finals is no easy task. With over 1,000 high schools and nearly 650 middle schools participating in the regional tournaments nationwide, these Georgia-12 students worked hard to advance to the finals and compete at the national level. The students' brilliance solving technical problems and answering questions about all branches of science and math is truly incredible. I would like to thank and congratulate the educators, coaches, and especially the bright young students of Stallings Island Middle School and Lakeside High School who made this tremendous run possible. Georgia-12 is certainly proud, and we look forward to cheering them on again next year. ____________________”
