CHARACTER COUNTS!
Joe Kordick Youth Character Awards
Academic year 2003-04
The annual Joe Kordick Youth Character
Awards honor middle and high school students whose lives and
achievements demonstrate an enduring commitment to qualities
associated with good character.
The students are nominated by the faculty of their schools and
submit an essay on personal values. Academics are not considered
in this award, which is based on students’ demonstration of
character and being a role model to others.
The awards are named in honor of the late
Joe Kordick, founding chairman and driving force of CHARACTER
COUNTS! in Martin County.
This year, the students' essay was based on
this scenario:
As mayor of your town, you have just
learned that your town has the highest rate of under-age
drinking and use of illegal drugs in the state. Create a plan
that would provide some methods for the community to combat this
problem.
The following students were winners and
finalists for the 2003-2004 Joe Kordick Youth Character Awards.
The awards ceremony was March 24, 2004, at the Blake Library in
Stuart.
