Emanuel County Institute issued the following announcement on May 2.
Emanuel County School System is proud to announce that Emanuel County Institute Senior Beta Club is a 2021-2022 National Beta School of Distinction and a National Beta School of Merit. Additionally, ECI’s Junior Beta Club is also a Beta Club School of Merit. National Junior Beta includes grades 4-8 and National Senior Beta includes grades 9-12.
ECI Senior Beta Club earned the recognition of School of Distinction by increasing its club’s membership by at least 10% from last year.
National Beta School of Distinction is an honor for Beta clubs striving towards academic achievement, exemplary character, demonstrated leadership and service to others. With an ingoing quest to instill these qualities in more students, the National Beta School of Distinction Award is designed to award those schools that show an increase in membership from the previous school year. This year, only 2,250 Beta Clubs across the country received this award.
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 “This national award speaks highly of your commitment to academic excellence and illustrates your dedication to preparing students for their future.”
