California Junior Scholarship Federation
August 18th, 2009
Hello River Hawks and Parents/Guardians of River Hawks!
Welcome (or welcome back) to Rio Norte! I am thrilled that some of you have already been asking about CJSF membership! Here is some preliminary information…
California Junior Scholarship Federation (CJSF) applications will be available on Thursday, August 27th in Room D-13 and on this page of the Rio Norte Website. Fall membership in CJSF is available to 8th GRADE STUDENTS ONLY! If you choose to print out an application, please click the application link that applies to you (there are two choices this semester).
The purpose of the CJSF, a state-wide organization of over 600 chapters, is to foster high standards of scholarship, service, and citizenship on the part of students. Membership is by application only, and is not automatic or compulsory. Students must reapply every semester.
Applications are taken during the beginning of each semester. To be formally admitted to CJSF, you need to complete the following tasks:
- fill out a CJSF application with your Spring 2009 3rd and 4th quarter grades
- submit a $5.00 activities fee with your completed application
- Optional: purchase a “CJSF medal” for $5.00 (you may wear the medal at graduation)
The application and fee must be submitted to me no later than Friday, September 11th. Please drop off your application and fee (including the optional $5.00 pre-order fee for a CJSF medal, if you so choose) in Room D-13. Once I have received your application and confirmed your eligibility, you will be formally invited to the Induction Ceremony. This ceremony will be held on Thursday, November 12th at 7pm in the Gym.
Many more announcements will be made during the upcoming daily bulletins regarding the application process…keep listening!
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me (jkratofi@hartdistrict) or call me at Rio Norte at 295-3700, x. 1413.
Sincerely,
Jeanette Kratofil
CJSF Advisor
