The Colorado Milken Award Goes to … Caleb Flores!

Good morning, Greeley West High School! Special guests have come to celebrate Greeley West's International Baccalaureate (IB) program, including Colorado Commissioner of Education Susana Córdova. But there's another very important reason for the all-school assembly. When Dr. Jane Foley, senior vice president of the Milken Educator Awards, presents English language arts (ELA), reading and Culturally Linguistically Diverse (CLD) teacher Caleb Flores with Colorado's sole 2023-24 Milken Award and $25,000, the outstanding educator gets the surprise of a lifetime. Flores is the 2,962nd Milken Educator recognized on the journey to our 3,000th Milken Award announcement. Click through to see the unforgettable day unfold in the photo gallery below.
