Second, the student must have a grade point average of at least 3.5 and meet the requirements of a point system based on each semester grading period.

In receiving the award from the Citrus Valley Optimist Club, community involvement is the most important attribute. These attributes include such activities as church involvement, fund raising for charity, and partici- pation in activities designed to help other young people, the elderly, or the needy. The club also considers the candidate ' s involvement in activities in school, local government, and scholastic achievements. The National Society Daughters of the American Revo- lution (D.A.R.) sponsors a contest every year conducted by the D.A.R. Good Citizen Committee. The award is chosen in two processes.
