Giving Back in a Big Way

Is education just what the doctor ordered? That seems to be the case for Conroe Comprehensive Dental Center.

This year marks the 4^th annual Timothy E. Gardner, D.D.S. Scholarship Award. The $1,000 scholarship was eligible to graduating seniors attending local high schools who are attending college in the fall of 2013.

Dr. Gardner and Dr. Burch presented the scholarships personally at each high schools’ senior awards night. The recipients were Morgan Darby and Ryan Mascheri, Montgomery High School, Mattie Cutaia, Conroe High School, and Macey Tickner, Willis High School.

“Our goal going into this was to choose students who were able to balance academics with extracurricular activities, community service, etc.,” Gardner said. “We wanted to reward students who are motivated, giving and determined. The students we chose demonstrated all those things and more.”

Applicants were required to fill out a scholarship form which included their GPA, class rank, extracurricular activities, volunteer hours, etc., as well as two short answer essay questions.
