  Ms. PETTERSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Warren Tech of 
Jefferson County Public Schools for their 50th anniversary.
  Warren Tech is one of the leading Career and Technical Education 
(CTE) centers in Colorado, preparing students to jump straight into 
successful careers or to be competitive applicants for college. For 
five decades, Warren Tech has empowered students through 36 innovative 
programs, where experienced faculty and industry partners collaborate 
to provide real-world projects, internships, and apprenticeships. They 
have equipped students with Post-Secondary Workforce Readiness (PWR) 
skills while providing over 13,000 free college credits and 1,600 
industry certifications annually.
  Warren Tech's rigorous educational programs, ranging from 
agriculture, STEM, arts, trades, and more, are proof of their mission 
to make meaningful connections between 21st Century academic knowledge 
and career-focused learning.
  On behalf of the people of Colorado's Seventh Congressional District, 
it is my honor to congratulate Warren Tech on its 50th anniversary and 
thank all the educators and dedicated individuals who work there for 
their commitment to our community.
