Beta Club Field Trip
Friday,
May 23
The Sixth Grade Members with the top Service Points will be invited to attend our yearly trip to National Headquarters.
Permission slips will go out to qualifying members next week.
Be sure Mrs. Phillips has your points totals today.
Service Points
• Everyone who was on time should have gotten their card initialed.
• If you are wearing your pin or t-shirt today, you should have received an extra signature. Only one extra signature…not one for each.
How the points system works:
• You will be responsible for remembering to bring your card to each meeting or activity. You will get your card initialed by an officer or an advisor each time you attend a club or committee meeting, participate in litter patrol pick up, or contribute to service projects.
• If you misplace your card, you will have to ask for a new one, but you will not be given credit for any signatures on the old one.
• If you are not on time to the monthly meetings, you may quietly come in and join the group, but your card will not be initialed.
• You must maintain at least a 3.5 GPA (at least 2 As and 2 Bs) each nine weeks. If you do not, you may consider yourself on probation until the next nine weeks.
• According to the Beta Creed, you must conduct yourself in a manner behaviorally which reflects credit upon school and community.
• What does probation mean? It means you are in danger of becoming an inactive member due to not maintaining the criteria for membership.
•If you are on probation, this means you must work hard to improve in the area which caused the probation: academics, behavior, participation.
•What happens if I am on probation twice? You will become an inactive member.
•Service points will be recorded and a cumulative record will be kept.
•Members not in good standing at the end of the semester will be notified. This can be due to lack of participation, academics, or behavior, i.e. ISS.
• Sixth graders must earn 15 service points this semester!
• Fifth graders must earn 8 service points this semester!
