Mr. Speaker, I would like to call your attention to the\nstoried history of an important school in my district, Passaic Valley\nRegional High School in the Township of Little Falls, New Jersey.\nSaturday, September 16, 2000 marked the 60th anniversary of this fine\ninstitution of learning. It is only fitting that this school be\nhonored, for it has a long history of caring and commitment to its\nstudents and the community at-large.\n  Passaic Valley Regional High School was recognized for its many years\nof leadership in Little Falls, which I have been honored to represent\nin Congress since 1997, and so it is only appropriate that these words\nare immortalized in the annals of his greatest of all freely elected\nbodies.\n  Passaic Valley Regional High School opened its doors on September 16,\n1940, to some 610 students from Totowa, West Paterson and Little Falls,\nNew Jersey. The school is governed by the Passaic Valley Regional High\nSchool, District #1 Board of Education which is composed of nine Board\nmembers from the three towns.\n  As a school committed to the development of well-rounded students,\nPassaic Valley has added many other programs to augment its strong\nacademic curriculum. These include a wide range of athletic, musical\nand literary activities, which are designed to stimulate and encourage\nthe individual growth of each student.\n  It should be noted that the remarkable success of the Passaic Valley\nRegional High School is due to its community support. The Passaic\nValley Regional High School, District #1 Board of Education, school\nadministration, teachers and friends of the school have aided and\nfostered its growth and development. Thanks to the help of these\nindividuals and the collective of their efforts this school is now a\nstellar force in the community.\n  I applaud the many outstanding and invaluable contributions that this\nschool has given to the community. Education is one of the cornerstones\nof our culture. This wonderful school has added much to the rich\nhistory of the State of New Jersey, and we all should be proud that we\nare able to celebrate a day in its honor.\n  Mr. Speaker, as a former educator in New Jersey, I can say that I can\nthink of no other school or faculty that works harder or care more\nabout the students. Perhaps the greatest tribute Passaic Valley\nRegional High School is success of its former students. Alumni from\nthis prestigious high school have risen to prominence in a variety of\nfields.\n  Mr. Speaker, I ask that you join our colleagues, the Township of\nLittle Falls, Passaic County, the State of New Jersey, the students,\nteachers, staff, Principal, Passaic Valley Regional High School,\nDistrict #1 Board of Education, Superintendent and me in recognizing\nthe outstanding and invaluable service to the community and the 6th\nanniversary of Passaic Valley Regional High School.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2000-12-15-pt1-PgE2194-2"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.32814405858516693, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
