Eleven Pleasanton high school seniors have been awarded Juanita Haugen Memorial Scholarships this year by the Pleasanton Community of Character Collaborative (CCC).
The nonprofit CCC said the $1,000 scholarships, named for a former Pleasanton United School District board president, were awarded based on “character and service.”
Applicants were asked to explain how their actions as students and community members reflected the six characteristics espoused by the organization: compassion, honesty, respect, responsibility, integrity, and self-discipline.
Five students from Amador Valley High School received scholarships, including Ishmeet Dhillon, Ajay Reyes, Matteo Gable, Madeline Zhang, and Jessi Oropeza.
Five students from Foothill High School also received scholarships, including Elias Benard, Jake Grijalva, Peter Bennett, Colin Harrison, and Valentina Avalos.
David Peregrina was the sole recipient from Village High School.
Haugen, who died of cancer in 2007, also created the Pleasanton Community of Character Collaborative, which includes members from the city, school district, Pleasanton Chamber of Commerce, and other nonprofit groups working to encourage a community culture based on shared values.
The scholarship recipients will also be honored at the CCC’s annual luncheon and fundraiser at Veterans Hall on Wednesday, May 15. Tickets for the luncheon are $45.
