                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 14, 2016

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Kiffany Kiewiet for her leadership and vision on behalf of the 2015-
2016 Veterans History Project documentary film produced by the students 
and faculty of Westminster High School in Westminster, Colorado.
   The film, MEDIC!, highlights the stories of five brave veterans who 
served their country and their fellow veterans as combat medics. 
Kiffany's willingness to take on the project and her ongoing support of 
the project helped provide a very memorable and hands-on experience for 
the students. The Veterans History Project helps preserve the stories 
of our veterans for future generations and MEDIC! will forever be 
preserved in the Library of Congress American Folklife Center.
   Kiffany became the principal in 2015 after serving as the assistant 
principal and athletic director for Westminster High School. Prior to 
that Kiffany worked as a community liaison at Manual High School in 
Denver. Kiffany's career in education started in an at-risk high school 
program in Wisconsin before she moved to Colorado about five-and-half 
years ago. A lifelong learner herself, Kiffany demonstrates a 
willingness to take on new challenges and projects to help both 
teachers and students grow and learn.
   I extend my deepest appreciation to Kiffany Kiewiet for her 
leadership on the 2015-2016 Veterans History Project documentary film 
and for her ongoing contribution to the lives of so many students in 
our community.
