SHS National Beta Club School of Merit

Sonoraville High School Named National Beta School of Merit

Gordon County Schools is proud to announce that Sonoraville High School is a 2021-2022 National Beta School of Merit. The school earned this recognition by offering National Beta to all eligible grades on their campus. National Junior Beta includes grades 4-8 and National Senior Beta includes grades 9-12.

The National Beta School of Merit award is given to honor a club’s dedication and commitment to academic excellence. To achieve this prestigious honor, a school must include members from all eligible grade levels in their Beta club. This year, only 3,380 Beta Clubs across the country received this award.

In a congratulatory letter to the school, Bobby Hart, CEO said “Thank you for your continued support of National Beta and commitment to developing future leaders!”

The SHS Beta Club is proud to receive this distinction.  The SHS Beta Club’s community service projects included the Fall Semester Fired up Food Drive and Spring Semester Book Donation to Preschoolers. The Beta Club also made a donation to the VAC, provided board books for the new little Free Library, and sponsored a SHS pre-planning breakfast. They have sponsored a Shop with a Phoenix team since its inception and annually help two seniors with graduation expenses.
