Paul Miller, the welding instructor for Isle of Wight County Schools, was recently honored with the 2024 Section Educator Award from the American Welding Society in recognition of his significant contributions to the Society and the welding industry.

This prestigious award celebrates educators who have excelled in advancing the welding knowledge of students through programs such as apprenticeships, corporate training, and other educational initiatives.

In the summer of 2024, Miller attended the Welding Instructor’s Institute at AWS, headquarters in Florida. This program allowed him to network with instructors from across the nation, collaborate on industry trends, and refine classroom techniques to better equip students with essential skills. IWCS credits Miller’s dedication and leadership with the division’s recognition as an accredited educational institution member of the AWS.
