New Tech High School is proud to announce that they have established a chapter of the California Scholarship Federation on campus. CSF recognizes academic excellence and is the oldest honor organization in the state. Following its first membership drive, New Tech's chapter is proud to welcome 16 new members and 2 associate members (9th graders) who qualified for membership based on their spring semester, 2013 report cards. Membership drives will now be held following each semester.
Congratulations to the following new members and associate members :
Marie Savannah Casayuran, Bailey Crocker, Wei-Qi Doi, Killian Fitzgerald, Morgan Heying,
Marina Moore, Anthony Murgolo, Haley Murphy, Lenora Oakes, Sven Olson, Wei-Wern Ooi, Megan Potter, Brianna Quade, Christa Rico, Crysta Tim, Alexander Walder, Ian Weimer and Alex Wilbanks.
Following the initial membership drive, there will be another one-time retroactive membership drive from October 14-25 to recognize eligibility for membership in previous semesters (excluding spring 2013). This will allow our current graduating seniors to qualify for Life Membership. Students who qualify for Life Membership (Sealbearer) are recognized at graduation with a gold seal on their diploma, the life member pin, and a notation on the transcript that is sent to colleges and universities. It is an additional honor to be added to the academic resume. Students may be eligible to receive a total of $15,000 in scholarships through the CSF Seymour Memorial Award as well.
Membership applications will be available in the office October 14-25. Students in grades 10-12 qualify for membership in CSF by earning a prescribed number of points each semester. Students will calculate their points and submit a copy of last semester's report card. Applications must be submitted by the end of the day on October 25. No late applications will be accepted and this will be the ONLY opportunity for retroactive membership.
This is a great opportunity to honor our top students for their outstanding academic performance, so be sure to have your student pick up a CSF Membership Application in the office between October 14 and 25. If you have any questions please contact the CSF Coordinator at csfcoordinator@newtechhigh.org.
