We will complete service projects throughout the school year to meet the community service requirement. These hours can be gained by any act of volunteering. Members cannot be paid for their help. In addition, these hours must be logged on the Hour Sheet members are provided with, and the activities must be signed by the person the students are helping. The hour sheet is available in the Beta Club Google Classroom.

Your Grades Beta Club members are expected to set an academic example at Elite. You should make A-B or A Honor Roll. A GPA that falls below 3.0 will lead to dismissal from Beta Club.
