The point of the club is for students to do more service hours. You don’t need to have done any to get in though. |
| Franklin did it in person. 3.75 is the cutoff. Lots of kids. |
The sponsor at our school was pretty honest. "It's good practice for filling out forms in high school." We didn't see the point. |
I think having students do more service hours is a good thing. I see the point. |
Franklin is not near the size of Carson. |
Bull. We didn’t find out the sponsor even was until the induction email. |
my kid does service hours unrelated to this. |
It had value for my son because it led him to do some volunteer work that he would not have otherwise done. But I think that if your child already does so through another organization (like scouts), there is likely little point to it. |
I was also thinking there may be a social benefit, as all of his friends joined. |
| When do all the participants get notice? |
Carson parents already received an email about it. Basically anyone who was invited to apply and who filled out the application was accepted. |
And maintain the 3.75 8th grade year. Some middle schools it is 3.5 gpa, it makes zero sense why it isn’t the same for all. |
| Liberty, 3.5, in person |
What does that have to do with anything? Carson is about 60% larger than Franklin. They could've done two in-person inductions if there were too many for one ceremony. |
m They are already doing them in 3 sessions. It’s too much disruption to have parents coming on 3 different days within a week. Get over it! |
