The 2024 Junior Beta Club Convention is going on in Louisiana. My daughter and her classmates are participating in the event with thousands of children from across the state. The competitions allow each club to represent their school in various Jr. Beta categories from academics, engineering, robotics, quiz bowls, and innovation to performing and creative arts. The 2023-2024 Theme is Beta: A Voyage of Adventure.

National Beta Club was founded in 1934, to give kids a chance to promote their ideals on community service and leadership, academics, and more. Beta is open to students in grades 4 through 12 in the U.S.

All members are called to lead by example and must maintain a GPA of 2.5 and up and a few other Beta Club rules such as mandatory community service hours. A student must make the mandatory grades, if not they will be kicked out of the club. Watching the kids perform throughout this event, made me allowed me to see many Barbe I thought there were so many talented kids in Louisiana.

This post is in honor of all the students in Louisiana who came and rehearsed or practiced day in and day out for this year's event. Win or lose, place or not, be proud of yourself and know that you represented your school by giving doing the best could.
