Letter from the President
Monday, June 14th, 2021—Earlier this year, Syracuse Academy of Science middle school 6th grade Project Based Learning (PBL) students practiced one of their civic duties by writing to various members of the United States government. In the letters, students expressed their issues about items they are passionate about. One such government member was Syracuse native, and 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden. Atoms were excited when they did in fact receive a letter from President Biden himself.
The letter states:
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
June 1, 2021
Syracuse Academy of Science Charter School Syracuse, New York
Dear Students,
Thank you for writing to me! I really enjoyed hearing from you and reading your thoughts about the issues most important to you.
Our country faces many challenges, and the work we have ahead of us is going to be really tough. I am certain that if we set aside our differences and come together as a Nation, we will create positive change. It will not be easy, and I am going to need your help.
Even at your young ages, you have the power to impact the future for generations to come. Throughout your lives, remain curious, creative, and fearless. These traits will serve you well and allow you to experience the best life has to offer.
I wish you the best in the years ahead and look forward to seeing where your futures take you. Study hard. Keep challenging yourselves. And be kind.
Sincerely,
Joe Biden
