Daughters of the American Revolution give Good Citizens Awards to Woods County high school seniors

 


In the fall of the 2017-2018 school year each high school in Woods County was contacted for the school election committee to select a good citizen from the senior class.

After selection the student had available the option of participation in the scholarship essay. The students wrote their essays under a supervised time limit. The student was not given the topic of the essay until they sat down to participate. This year's topic was, “How has America advanced the cause of freedom in the rest of the world?” All three schools participated in the essay, which was strictly voluntary.

Hannah Kornele of Alva High School was selected by the DAR committee of two former schoolteachers. Her essay was sent on to next level of competition.

Awards were presented in the spring assembly of each school. Participants receiving the Good Citizen Award from each school were Nathan Pitts of Waynoka High School, Hannah Kornele of Alva High School and Yamila Galindo of Freedom High School.
