meaningful to both the students and the organization, they would be
named after members of the Dallas High School Family who best
symbolize and model that behavior in the school community.
Point of Light Awards have been named for Mary Yankowski, Hon-
est Point of Light Award; Laura O'Malley, Service Point of Light
Award; Lois Redmond, Civics Point of Light Award; Nancy Garvey,
