Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to recognize the superintendent of Farrell Schools, Robert R. Rubano, Jr., and the school board members who have served for over 9 years. Mr. Rubano not only serves as the superintendent of the schools in Farrell, but also teaches a leadership class to juniors and seniors in the school district 1 day a week. The subjects taught in the class vary from speech preparation to key decision making to job and college outlook. This leadership class has become very popular among students in the Farrell School District. Mr. Rubano has been the superintendent of the Farrell School District since 1997. Before committing to be the superintendent, Mr. Rubano spent many years as a teacher, then principal. Mr. Rubano served as a team facilitator for a group of 10 who designed new math curriculum for grades K-6. He also assisted in writing the district's Act 178 Professional Development Plan. Mr. Rubano has dedicated his career to bettering the education of young minds. I ask my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to join me in recognizing all of the hard work and time Robert R. Rubano, Jr. has put in to making the school district better. It is an honor to represent the Fourth Congressional District of Pennsylvania and a pleasure to salute such a dedicated individual like Robert R. Rubano, Jr. ____________________
