Rock Hill, SC – Legion Collegiate is proud to announce that we are a 2023-24 National Beta School of Distinction. The school earned this recognition by increasing their club's membership by at least 10% from last year.
 
National Beta School of Distinction is an honor for Beta clubs striving towards academic achievement, exemplary character, demonstrated leadership and service to others. With an ongoing quest to instill these qualities in more students, the National Beta School of Distinction Award is designed to reward those schools that show an increase in membership for the current school year. This year, only 22% of Beta Clubs across the country received this award.
 
In a congratulatory letter to the school, Bobby Hart, CEO said, "This national award speaks highly of your commitment to academic excellence and illustrates your dedication to preparing students for their future."
 
Award recipients will receive a National Beta School of Distinction banner to proudly display as a symbol of their accomplishment.
 
"Here at LCA, leadership and community service are a main pillar of our schools' charter," Renee Hobbs, Wellness Coordinator and BETA sponsor, said. "We are so proud and excited that our students have obtained this recognition from the National Beta Club Organization.
 
"The importance of giving back to community can never be stressed enough and our students eagerly embrace this idea.  It is through their student driven events that they have achieved this recognition. Way to go Beta Lancers!"
