  3. Purpose The purpose of this organization shall be to promote the ideals of honesty, service, morality, ethical conduct, and leadership among secondary school students; to reward meritorious academic achievement; and to encourage and assist students in continuing their education after high school.

  4. Our Motto “Let us lead by Serving Others” The motto of The National Beta Club is "Let Us Lead by Serving Others." This motto, more than simply a catchy phrase, states the philosophy upon which The National Beta Club is based. Service to others is indeed one of the most important characteristics of Beta Club membership. Opportunities to serve are found in every school and community situation, whether large or small - urban, suburban or rural. There are needs that could and should be addressed by Beta members in every school and community.

  5. Community Service • EACH MEMBER OF THE CLUB IS EXPECTED TO CONTRIBUTE COMMUNITY SERVICE to the school and/or community. • The service projects and opportunities will be headed by advisors and officers and ALL suggestions are welcome by members. • 10 hours are required per semester

  6. Academic Expectations • To receive an invitation to join the Beta Club, you are required to have a 3.5 GPA.   • To maintain membership, students are required to maintain a 3.5 GPA.

  7. Expected Behaviors • Members of the club should conduct themselves in a manner that upholds the purpose of the organization, as well as display behaviors that represent themselves, the school, their parents, and the community in a positive light. • There should be minimum and limited behavior infractions although NO negative behaviors are encouraged.

  8. Accountability • Students who cannot meet the community, academic, or behavioral expectations will be placed on a probation status by the advisors. How do I get on probation? • Cumulative GPA lower than a 3.5 • Not meeting the service hours requirement • Behaviors that go against the purpose of the organization. • Poor attendance to meetings without prior notice to officers and advisors.

  9. It is our goal to make you aware of the rules and expectations, therefore you can be mindful and govern yourselves accordingly.
