The DAR Good Citizens program and scholarship contest is intended to encourage
and reward the qualities of good citizenship. The program is open to all senior class
students enrolled in accredited public or private secondary schools that are in good
standing with their State Boards of Education. United States citizenship is not
required. The student selected as the school’s DAR Good Citizen must have the
qualities of dependability (which includes truthfulness, loyalty, and punctuality) service
(which includes cooperation, courtesy, and consideration of others); leadership
(which includes personality, self-control, and ability to assume responsibility); and
patriotism (which includes unselfish interest in family, school, community and nation)
to an outstanding degree.

The Terry Tidmore Good Citizens Award is given in honor of Mr. Tidmore, father of
Melinda T. Kammeyer, a charter member of Coushatti Trace. The Terry Tidmore Good
Citizens Award is given annually to a Willis High School senior to recognize the student
for their good work, their service to the community, dependability and patriotism.

The Coushatti Trace Chapter, NSDAR, scholarship was created in June 1986. The
scholarship was established to honor an outstanding senior at Willis High School.
Recipients must exhibit leadership, good citizenship, and patriotism, along with a 'C'
average rating, and exhibit a need for financial assistance.

The Jill Mahaffey Memorial Scholarship was established in 2011 in honor of Jill
Mahaffey, a member of Coushatti Trace Chapter. The scholarship is given annually to
a male or female student enrolled at Lone Star College who has been a resident of
Montgomery County for at least one year. Appplicants must be enrolled in a
computer related field of study and have 3.0 GPA or greater.
