The last few months, National Beta members from Parkview Baptist have been working hard to submit their entries for the National Beta Virtual Convention.
Elizabeth C. – Visual Art (Fiber Arts)
Gracie C. – Seventh Grade Language Arts
Mason L. Seventh Grade Mathematics
Palmer C. – Eighth Grade Science
Cruse B., Gracie C., Mason L., and Logan M. – Quiz Bowl
In late June, they were able to celebrate that hard work when Mason Liner was recognized nationally as the 8th place winner in Seventh Grade Mathematics.
These Jr. Beta members originally competed and received awards during their State Convention held virtually in February. Their placement at the state level provided an opportunity to compete at the national level. The National Convention, held in Orlando, FL, provided all students the opportunity to compete at their comfort level, virtually or on-site. Over 13,000 Junior Beta (grades 4-8) and Senior Beta (grades 9-12) students were able to represent their schools in the first National Beta Hybrid Convention.
With more than 500,000 active members and 8,750 clubs nationally and internationally, National Beta has become the nation’s largest independent, non-profit, educational youth organization. National Beta promotes the ideals of academic achievement, character, service and leadership among elementary and secondary school students. National Junior Beta includes grades 4-8 and National Senior Beta includes grades 9-12.
