Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Carter Pearce, a senior at DuBois Area High School, for winning an international vocabulary competition.
Vocabulary Bowl is sponsored by Vocabulary.com and invites more than 900,000 high school students to compete in a virtual competition, which lasts over a month.
Carter, who placed first, mastered over 8,000 words. After winning in the fall, he competed in the spring competition and mastered all the featured words.
Quiz Bowl team and has helped the team win multiple regional competitions. Since joining 2 years ago, Carter has helped the team win four State titles.
Carter graduates later this spring and plans to major in history. His goal is to become a history teacher.
Mr. Speaker, this is a fantastic achievement, and I thank Carter for representing Pennsylvania so well. I wish Carter all the best in his future endeavors.
