Recognizing Tim Miller

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Ms. PETTERSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Tim Miller, who is retiring from his service to our community as a Drawing, Painting, and Graphic Arts Instructor at Golden High School.

For more than 20 years, Tim has inspired generations of students through his creativity, dedication, and leadership. His positive outlook and ability to encourage and challenge students have left a lasting impact on both the students of Golden High School and the art community in Colorado.

During his time teaching, Tim has consistently gone above and beyond for his students. He has regularly taken them on field trips to assisted living homes, the Children's Hospital, the Denver Indian Center, and the Denver Rescue Mission to inspire them through art in the Metro Denver community. Tim's commitment to his students has been evident in everything he has done--including obtaining a bus driver's license to ensure his students would continue to get these meaningful experiences while cutting down on costs and logistical hurdles for the school. These opportunities have challenged students artistically and taught them compassion, service, and connection.

On behalf of the people of Colorado's 7th Congressional District, it is my honor to congratulate Tim Miller on his retirement from Golden High School and sincerely thank him for his contributions to our community.
