  Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to commend the work of an 
extraordinary teacher from the Fourth District of Colorado, Ms. Donna 
Wheeler. Ms. Wheeler teaches at Swink Junior-Senior High School in 
Swink, CO. Teachers provide one of the most valuable services to 
society educating students. By promoting integrity, knowledge, 
proficiency, and wholehearted interest in her students, Ms. Wheeler has 
proven her ability as an educator. Caring and talented teachers are of 
immense worth in our society and proficient teachers are the backbone 
of the Republic. It takes a very dedicated person to encourage 
children. Ms. Wheeler has set an example each of us can follow to 
nurture our nation's youth in becoming responsible adults. I 
congratulate Ms. Wheeler.
