The 2012 Pistons Scholars Night at the Palace on Saturday, March 31st was a fun-filled, action-packed evening.  This event rewarded 762 Cornerstone and Cornerstone Charter students in 1st grade through high school who excelled in academics, citizenship, punctuality and extra-curricular activities. 

This was a big night for the Cornerstone Schools community as 2,000 Pistons Scholars, parents, teachers, staff, alumni, partners and friends filled the arena. Everyone was able to not only cheer on the Pistons, but also cheer on 40 Pistons Scholars as they welcomed the Detroit Pistons onto the court in “high five tunnels” before the game and at halftime.

During pre-game festivities, our President and CEO, Ms. Ernestine Sanders, joined a select group of Leadership and Business High School students at center court who showed how they achieved excellence in Cornerstone’s challenging curriculum and are finding large and small ways to make the world a better place. 

We are grateful to our many partners and friends who made this event possible by honoring our Pistons Scholars through sponsorships and donations.  This event yields terrific experiences for our community and much-needed scholarship support for our students.

Thank you to the Detroit Pistons and The Palace of Auburn Hills for making our 6th Annual Pistons Scholars Night great!

We hope you will join us next year at the 7th Annual Pistons Scholars Night at the Palace.
