Mr. Speaker, this month, I would like to talk about Hooked on School Days, which took place from February 11 to 15.
School perseverance is a demonstration that our kids are committed and determined to achieve their goals and nourish their dreams. It is this fire burning in their eyes that moves mountains and shapes the artisans of tomorrow.
Hooked on School Days is a celebration of their hard-fought battles, class after class, grade after grade, and year after year. It is the encouragement students get from teachers, family and friends that really makes a difference.
I would like to congratulate students of all ages for their daily efforts, their courage, their determination and the work they do every day. I wish them every success.
