Crawford County Middle School Beta Club Members Participate in State Competition
Roberta, GA, December
     National Beta members from Crawford County Middle School are celebrating their recent participation in the Georgia Virtual Leadership Summit. They were announced as qualifiers of the following challenge, Rapid Response.
     Typically, National Beta Leadership Summits bring together students from multiple states for 1-2 day events. During that time, students work with interactive speakers who engage members through introspective exercises and team-building activities. Clubs can also participate in team-based leadership challenges which test their communication, critical thinking, creativity, presentation, and collaboration skills. While the Leadership Summit was cancelled for in-person attendance due to health and safety concerns stemming from the COVID-19, members were able to work together to submit their challenges online and met virtually for interactive leadership trainings from Bill Cordes and Ted Weise. Their victory at this level provide the opportunity to compete at the national level. National Convention will be held at the Swan and Dolphin Resort at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida during Summer 2021.
     Club sponsors, Christi Williford and Darby Martin are very excited and proud of each student for this wonderful accomplishment. Mrs. Williford added that we also had a member, Clint Lowe, chosen to represent the southern region as a Regional Leadership Representative. “This is a huge honor for Clint, as well as for Crawford County Middle School. Only 3 members from our region of southeast states are selected. Clint had to participate in an hour long interview as part of the process.” Other members of the leadership team, include Maggie Lowe, McKinley Howard, Lavonda Adkins, Grey Perkovich, and Jake Carroll.
     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. Visit betaclub.org for more information.
