Twenty First Star Chapter DAR Recognizes Good Citizens and American History Scholars

The Twenty First Star Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution recognized Good Citizens and American History Scholars at area high schools. To receive a Good Citizen award the students need to demonstrate leadership, service, dependability and patriotism and be recognized by their teachers and members of the senior class for these accomplishments. To receive an award for outstanding work in American History, the criteria differs from each school but includes; scholarship, academic excellence, a passion for history, a love of learning, and a positive attitude.

Eight students from the Maine and Niles Townships High Schools were acknowledged at their year-end award ceremonies. Twenty First Star Chapter DAR members Nancy Meyer, Pat Gould, Bonnie Reese and Barrie Shinn congratulated the students. Niles History Scholars will be announced in the Fall.
