"The hardest thing is to come back after three months of not doing any work, not doing any homework, and all of a sudden you've got a lot to make up; everybody has a lot to catch up with. And in the last year, you all look so excited to be in math class on your first day," President Biden said.
"We love our students. And so, if you're going through tough times or maybe you're struggling a little bit in math, or maybe you're struggling a little bit at home, you can go to your teachers, you can trust your teachers. We are always here for you guys. So I want to thank the teachers for what you do," Dr. Biden added.
