  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Ksenia Bachkina, who has received the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service 
Ambassadors for Youth award. Ksenia Bachkina 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 Ksenia Bachkina 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 Ksenia Bachkina 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 
her future accomplishments.
