2011 SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS

Young people are the future of tomorrow. This is an old adage, however, it is the truth. The CCSO scholarship brings forth some of the finest young people to our attention. All of these young individuals stand out because of their community involvement and drive for excellence. They have kept a grade point average in high school well above 3.5, which is not an easy task when participating in school, church, and community activities. We applaud them all and wish them a bright tomorrow.

2011 CCSO Scholarship Winners

 

CCSO was pleasantly surprised by the numerous applications submitted this year for our scholarship. All of the applicants reflected pride in their academic life and all were involved in community activities. One applicant stood out amongst the rest, and that was the $1000 scholarship recipient Chantia Justice. Chantia will be attending U.C. San Diego where she will major in psychology. Her father is Special Agent Rodney Justice.

CCSO awarded $500 scholarships each to Egick Dimaano (Father is SRN II Renaldo Dimaano), Kayla Foote (Father is Lt. David Foote), Samantha Leon (Father is Sgt. Richard Leon), and Mia Villarreal (Father is PAIII Charles Villarreal). These selected winners are truly outstanding young people that are on the road to success.

CCSO gave $100 each to Michael Correia (Father is Sgt. Manuel Correia) and Amber Robertson (Father is Lt. Dewey Robertson) as they were very close to the above selected winners in either their grade point average or involvement in the community.

Not all our applicants could be selected, but we truly thank each and everyone for submitting an application, and for achieving such an outstanding record both academically and socially. To all the CCSO congratulates all the applicants, and wish them the best of luck in their college years.

 

Congratulations !

These young men and women far exceeded their high school requirements and volunteered within their communities. On behalf of CCSO, we wish them all the best in college and in their future endeavors. Enjoy college and continue on your path to success.

We thank all applicants for the excellent letters written, and their thoughtful thank-you letters to the CCSO office. Keep an eye out for these achievers, as they will become tomorrow’s leaders.
