Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Ms. Pettersen. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud Jacob Flannigan and Travis Canon for earning an Honorable Mention Award in the 2023 Congressional App Challenge.

Jacob and Travis built an interactive app entitled Study Buddy which allows users to dress up a virtual animal avatar after completing tasks such as homework.

Jacob and Travis, students from Golden High School, spent countless hours and used numerous tools to learn about coding and app development while developing new skills and further advancing their STEM education. Their perseverance and dedication to this challenge exemplifies the character and determination the faculty instills in the students at Golden High.

Congratulations to Jacob Flannigan and Travis Canon for their hard work on this project. I am certain they will exhibit the same dedication and character in their future accomplishments, and I wish them the best of luck going forward.
