                        TRIBUTE TO RYAN MITCHELL

<bullet> Mr. RUBIO. Mr. President, today I recognize Ryan Mitchell, the 
Hamilton County Teacher of the Year from Hamilton County High School in 
Jasper, FL.
  Ryan is an instructional coach at Hamilton County High School and has 
worked with Hamilton County Schools since 2018. He assists middle 
school and high school teachers with instructional modeling, lessons 
and planning, and demonstrating various methods of teaching. He also 
monitors students' progress from within the schools.
  Ryan believes he would not have received this award if not for the 
support of his family and friends. He is grateful for the countless 
relationships he has developed in Hamilton County and throughout 
Florida. It is these relationships that have made him the teacher he is 
today.
  Ryan is also very thankful for his students and considers it an honor 
to be their teacher. Each day, he looks forward to teaching his 
students, knowing they are the next generation of future leaders. Ryan 
makes sure he is available to answer all of his student's questions, 
and he hopes they learn half as much from him as he learns from them.
  I offer my sincere gratitude to Ryan for his work to help students. I 
look forward to hearing of his continued good work in the years to 
come.
