CISDR joined the Dallas Chapter of the Women of AT&T (WOA Dallas), on Thursday, May 23 to honor outstanding high school graduates. Since 2013, WOA Dallas has partnered with CISDR to award college scholarships to graduating high school seniors to assist in attending an accredited post-secondary institution or technical vocational/trade school. Scholarship awards are based on academics and extracurricular activities, as well as a written essay and 20-second video from each candidate.
This year, a total of $16,000 was awarded to ten deserving students from three local high schools. Eight of these students will receive $1,500, and two will receive $2,000. We would like to give our sincere appreciation to all of the Women of AT&T members who volunteered their time and money to help these students start their college careers off on the right foot, as well as a hearty congratulations to the Class of 2019!
