Junior Beta Club Inducts New Members n On the evening of September 30, a special program was held for Boca’s Middle School students selected as new members in Pine Crest’s chapter of the National Junior Beta Club. The national organization, whose motto is “Let Us Lead by Serving Others,” requires that all members distinguish themselves by maintaining academic excellence and demonstrating leadership qualities both at school and in the community. Those inducted take part in a number of service projects throughout the year, including community outreach (Food for Families, Holiday Toy Buy, Rally for Darfur, scholarships for native Mexican children) and on-campus initiatives (peer tutoring, organizing Bagel Breaks, and assisting with events such as Grandparents’ Day and Back-to-School Night). This year’s new officers are Brandon Sack (president), Sara Brown (vice-president), Kimberly Ginsburg (secretary), and Alexandra Golden (treasurer). In addition, 38 new members were inducted into the Beta Club, joining the 38 other Middle School students who are current members.
