Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Rice Elementary School for being authorized to teach the Primary Years Program as an International Baccalaureate World School. The International Baccalaureate program takes an interdisciplinary approach, allowing children to learn and collaborate in the classroom. This program provides a unique learning experience to students, expanding their horizons and teaching them about our larger world beyond our own borders. I congratulate the teachers and administrators at Rice Elementary. I thank them for always going above and beyond for their students and their families. I am proud to recognize Rice Elementary School as a leader in education in our great State of Minnesota, the Education State, and in Minnesota's Sixth Congressional District. Congratulations again to the teachers, administrators, and most importantly, the students and their families. Tribute to Retired Chief Petty Officer Alan Dix
