  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Alex Lesko who has received the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors 
for Youth award. Alex Lesko is a 9th grader at Arvada West High School 
and received this award because his determination and hard work have 
allowed him to overcome adversities.
  The dedication demonstrated by Alex Lesko is exemplary of the type of 
achievement that can be attained with hard work and perseverance. It is 
essential students at all levels strive to make the most of their 
education and develop a work ethic which will guide them for the rest 
of their lives.
  I extend my deepest congratulations once again to Alex Lesko for 
winning the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I 
have no doubt he will exhibit the same dedication and character to all 
his future accomplishments.
