[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 154 (2008), Part 6] [House] [Page 7825] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]NATIONAL TEACHER DAY (Mrs. CAPPS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.) Mrs. CAPPS. Madam Speaker, on this National Teacher Day, I rise to single out just one of the many talented teachers in my congressional district. Libby Anderson teaches second grade at Grover Heights Elementary School in Grover Beach. It's a national blue ribbon school. She is one of those gifted teachers with a truly unique way of igniting the interest of her students. A few years ago, she led a class project where each student picked a lighthouse to study from around the country. Through that project one student learned of the Federal efforts to restore the Piedras Blancas lighthouse in my district. Under her guidance, the class embarked on a campaign called ``Pennies for Piedras'' to raise money toward this effort. By the end of that school year, the students had raised $1,337.30 in pennies. I'm happy to say that her students have gone on to lead support for continued restoration of this special place. This is just one example of the many exceptional ways this teacher touched the lives of her students and expanded their awareness of their community. Our country is blessed to have teachers like Ms. Anderson who spark students' passions, encouraging them to get involved in the world around them. ____________________
