  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Alexander Fernandez for receiving the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service 
Ambassadors for Youth award.
  Alexander Fernandez is a student at Arvada K-8 School and received 
this award because his determination and hard work have allowed him to 
overcome adversities.
  The dedication demonstrated by Alexander Fernandez 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.

winning the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I 
have no doubt he will exhibit the same dedication and character in all 
of his future accomplishments.
