                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 14, 2014

  Mr. TIPTON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Ginger Andenucio, 
an educator from Pueblo, Colorado. After 36 years of service in Pueblo 
County District 70, Ms. Andenucio is retiring to spend time with her 
family and friends.
  Ms. Andenucio has had an exemplary career as an educator and an 
administrator in District 70. Long before she began her career as a 
teacher, she was a student in the District, and after college, Ms. 
Andenucio was drawn to working in there. During her time in the 
classroom, she would teach at the elementary, middle and high school 
levels. After teaching for 20 years, Ms. Andenucio began working in the 
administration, where she was tasked with building District 70's gifted 
and talented program. From there, she climbed the ladder, eventually 
becoming the Assistant Superintendent. Under her leadership, District 
70 launched programs such as Gateway to Technology, the International 
Baccalaureate program, and Project Lead the Way. Ms. Andenucio also led 
the transition to modernize classrooms by bringing laptops and 
Promethean boards to schools. Throughout this period, she has had one 
goal in mind, to create a better learning experience for the students 
of District 70.
  Mr. Speaker, Ms. Andenucio's hard work and dedication are an example 
to us all. I stand with the residents of Pueblo County and the students 
and parents of District 70 in thanking Ms. Andenucio and congratulating 
her on a lifetime of service. Although she is retiring from her current 
post, I am confident she will continue to be a valuable part of her 
community, and I look forward to seeing all she will accomplish in the 
years to come.
