creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your classes to build new panies that will create new jobs and boost our economy。The future of America depends on you。You cannot drop out of school and just drop into a good job。Maybe you could be an innovator or an inventormaybe even good enough to e up with the next iPhone or the new medicine or vaccinebut you might not know it until you do your project for your science class。Every single one of you has something to offer。But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the worldand none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed。And I’ve talked about responsibility a lot。I’ve talked about teachers’ responsibility for inspiring students and pushing you to learn。That’s what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education。And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover whatthat

learn for it。What you’re learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future。We need every single one of you to develop your talents and your skills and your intellect so you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems。ve got students tuning in from all across America, from kindergarten through 12th I am just so glad that all
