The Carlos D. Torres Scholarship was first
awarded in the spring of 2003 and founded by Cecilia Torres Best,
Instructional Specialist at the Fontana Success Center. The
scholarship is in honor of her father who believed higher education
for his four daughters and one son would bring them a better life.
The scholarship is awarded once a year during the spring semester to
ESL students who have demonstrated motivation, progress, and
excellence in their pursuit of English and a better life for their
future. Qualifications for the scholarship are as follows:
1. The student must be enrolled in the
non-credit ESL program at the Fontana Center.
2. He/she must complete a double-spaced,
typed paragraph on an assigned topic.
3. The student must also be recommended by two
apprentices or instructors.
