                       TRIBUTE TO PAUL RICHARDSON

 Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, today I honor Paul Richardson, the 
Bay County Teacher of the Year at Tom P. Haney Technical Center in 
Callaway, FL.
  Paul is an instructor in welding technology and teaches the 
foundational program at Tom P. Haney Technical Center. His class covers 
a broad base of knowledge and skills such as management, environmental 
issues, and safety. Paul's goal is to prepare students for employment 
in the welding industry. He also instructs advanced welding technology 
for students who have demonstrated a mastery of his foundational 
program.
  Paul is the first instructor at Tom P. Haney Technical Center to 
receive this award. It is also the first time Bay County has named a 
technical school teacher ``Teacher of the Year.'' Paul credited his 
colleagues for this achievement, noting their combined work helps 
students with their education. He was thankful to see that the 
importance of technical education was recognized.
  I extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to Paul for his dedication 
to his students, and I look forward to hearing of his continued good 
work in the years ahead.
