                       Tuesday, December 8, 2015

  Mr. TIPTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of Ryan Moore. Mr. 
Moore teaches science at the Liberty Point International School in 
Pueblo West, Colorado, where every day he engages and motivates his 
students through his unique high-energy teaching style that has 
resulted in improved achievement scores for his students. In 
recognition for his hard work and dedication in the classroom, Mr. 
Moore was recognized recently as one of only 40 educators nationwide to 
receive the prestigious Milken Education Award. He was the sole 
recipient from Colorado this year. Mr. Moore's passion for teaching not 
only keeps his students engaged and interested in learning, but has 
also consistently improved their performance over the course of his 
seven year tenure.
   Mr. Moore's public service extends beyond teaching. He is a former 
United States Army Staff Sergeant, with 10 years of service that 
included three deployments to Iraq. Mr. Moore credits the leadership 
qualities he developed in the military as helping him succeed in the 
classroom, earning him a reputation as a well-respected educator among 
both students and his peers. Mr. Moore is also active in his community, 
volunteering his free time with the Boy Scouts of America and the 
Pueblo West Department of Parks and Recreation.
   Mr. Speaker, Mr. Moore is an incredible individual with an 
exceptional history of selfless service. He has a limitless ability to 
inspire the students he teaches and represents the best of educators in 
the Third Congressional District of Colorado. I am confident that Mr. 
Moore will continue to be a tremendous asset to his students and the 
Pueblo West community. I want to thank him for his service and wish him 
continued success for many years to come.
