                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. DANIEL WEBSTER

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 20, 2012

  Mr. WEBSTER. Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to recognize Mr. Derek 
Cavilla of Orlando, Florida, a teacher at Workforce Advantage Academy, 
upon his completion of the National Gallery of Art's Annual Summer 
Teacher Institute. During the National Gallery's six-day seminar, Mr. 
Cavilla intensively studied the foundation of twentieth-century art by 
examining the pioneering artists of French impressionism and post-
impressionism.
  In order for participants to be accepted in to the Gallery's Teacher 
Institute seminar, they must first complete a rigorous application 
process. Mr. Cavilla was one of only forty-five teachers from across 
the nation chosen to participate in this year's National Gallery of 
Art's Teacher Institute. From this seminar, teachers are able to return 
to their schools and students with new tools and ideas that will 
enhance education curriculum of all grade levels and subjects. The 
students of Central Florida are blessed to have such a dedicated 
educator as Mr. Cavilla.
  On behalf of the citizens of Central Florida, I am pleased to 
recognize and congratulate Mr. Derek Cavilla on his acceptance to and 
successful completion of the National Gallery of Art's Annual Summer 
Teacher Institute. May his dedication to our nation's educational 
institutions and students inspire others to follow in his footsteps.
