  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Melissa Perez for receiving the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors 
for Youth award. Melissa Perez is an 8th grader at Wheat Ridge 5-8 and 
received this award because her determination and hard work have 
allowed her to overcome adversities.
   The dedication demonstrated by Melissa Perez 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 to Melissa Perez for winning the 
Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I have no doubt 
she will exhibit the same dedication and character in all of her future 
accomplishments.
