DCGEF Board Character Does Count Scholarship

About the Sponsor

DCG has been using the Character Counts Framework for several years. This framework contains the six pillars of character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship. To quote from the Josephsen Institute: “Let’s face it: It’s not easy to become a person of character. It takes a good heart, but it also requires wisdom to know right from wrong and the discipline to do right even when it’s costly, inconvenient or difficult. Becoming a person of character is a lifelong quest to be better.”

To continue to support our students in being persons of good character and showing leadership, scholarships are given to those who best and most consistently represent these pillars and demonstrate leadership in their daily lives. The board members of the Dallas Center-Grimes Education Foundation personally contribute to providing these scholarships.
