As students begin a new school year, President Barack Obama plans to deliver his second annual Back-to-School Speech on Tuesday, September 14 at 1:00 p.m. ET at Julia R. Masterman Laboratory and Demonstration School in Philadelphia, PA, a 2010 National Blue Ribbon School. During the speech, the President will speak directly to students across the country. Last year, President Obama encouraged students to study hard, stay in school, and take responsibility for their education.

“Every single one of you has something you’re good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That’s the opportunity an education can provide,” President Obama said to students last year.

President Obama’s Back-to-School Speech will be live streamed at: http://www.whitehouse.gov/live.  For more information, visit www.whitehouse.gov/back-to-school.
