He plans to attend college at Virginia Tech or the University of Virginia, and to major in engineering, after which he hopes to be a contributor and a leader in his community.

The DAR Good Citizen program recognizes outstanding young people who exhibit the qualities of good citizenship in their homes, school and communities and is intended to encourage and reward these students. This program is open to all high school seniors enrolled in public or private schools accredited by their state board of education.

  • Dependability (truthfulness, honesty, punctuality, )
  • Service (cooperation, helpfulness, responsibility, )
  • Leadership (personality, self-control, initiative, )
  • Patriotism (unselfish loyalty to American ideals).

 

Ethan will be recognized by the Count Pulaski Chapter in April and will be presented with a pin, a certificate and other gifts. He will be recognized at the Pulaski County High School Awards Assembly at the end of the school year.
