Edna Hill Middle School is proud to announce we are continuing our new club on campus. In the Fall, only 8th graders can apply. CJSF stands for
California Junior Scholarship Federation
. Think of it as an honor society or a special club for 7th and 8th grade students in California who get good grades and help out in their community.
Here is the breakdown in simple terms:
· What it is: A group that recognizes students who work hard in school (scholarship) and help others (service).
· What you do: You have to apply every semester based on your report card (usually, you need mostly A’s and some B’s in core classes) - for us that means you have to qualify for both quarters that make up each semester.
· Requirements: Besides good grades, you often need to do volunteer work or community service (like tutoring, cleaning up campus, or helping at food drives).
· Benefits: It helps prepare you for high school, looks good for your future, and if you do it long enough, you get special pins or ribbons to wear at your 8th-grade promotion.
8th Graders: 8th graders can apply both semesters to participate.
7th Graders: 7th graders can apply only the Spring semester to participate.
· 6th Graders: 6th graders cannot join yet; it starts in 7th grade.
In short: Get good grades, do community service, apply for the club, and get rewarded for being a great student.
If you think this sounds like you, click on the link below to apply. You will need to have access to your Quarter 3 (March) and Q4 (June) report cards from 7th grade. You can find this information in your Aeries account. If you have the points you need, Mrs. Hulstrom will send you an invite to the CJSF Canvas page.
