  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Rae Laniel who has received the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors 
for Youth award. Rae Laniel is a 7th grader at Drake Middle School and 
received this award because her determination and hard work have 
allowed her to overcome adversities.
  The dedication demonstrated by Rae Laniel is exemplary of the type of 
achievement that can be attained with hard work and perseverance. It is 
essential that students at all levels strive to make the most of their 
education and develop a work ethic that will guide them for the rest of 
their lives.
  I extend my deepest congratulations once again to Rae Laniel for 
winning the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I 
have no doubt she will exhibit the same dedication she has shown in her 
academic career to her future accomplishments.
