At this time, the approximately 1000 CSF chapters and 600 CJSF chapters continue to foster the recognition, motivation, and education of academically talented students, and to promote among their chapter memberships the CSF/CJSF ideal of service to their communities.

For CJSF membership, the adviser (Mrs. Cowgill) analyzes the semester report card of the applicants.  Membership is based on grades earned during the preceding semester. Students must reapply every semester.

To qualify for CJSF membership this semester, follow these guidelines:

1          You must earn TWICE the number of points than courses in which you are enrolled that meet membership requirements.  Those courses in 7^th and 8^th grade are math, science, social studies, language arts, and foreign language.

2          No points are earned for P.E., a remedial or repeated course, or work experience in which pay is involved.

3          CJSF points are granted as follows:   A=3 points     B=1 point

High school students (grades 10-12) who qualify may become a member of the CSF by earning a grade point average of 3.5.  Grades are calculated at the end of the semester.  Physical education is not counted in the GPA.  All students who are eligible are strongly encouraged to become members; this type of scholastic achievement is recognized by colleges and universities.  In order to become a member, the student must submit an application each semester the student is eligible.
