You will need to turn your completed application, a copy of last semester's grades and $4 for the fee in to the finance office by Friday April 8, 2011. For more information about CSF read the information below.
What is CSF?
CSF stands for California Scholarship Federation. It is an academic honors society for active and academically minded students. Being a member of CSF looks great on college applications, gets you special recognition at graduation, and can provide scholarships to active members.

Cool. How do I join?
At the beginning of every semester, you can pick up an application from the counseling office. Freshmen students are invited to apply beginning the second semester of their freshman year. Once the application is completed, turn it in to the finance office with $4 and a copy of your last semester's grades.

Uh-oh, an application. Does that mean it’s hard to get in?
Students are admitted into CSF solely based on their semester grades. While some students find it difficult to get a high enough GPA, others have no trouble. But don’t worry—if you think CSF is right for you, then you probably are the type of person who won’t have too much trouble getting in.

What do I have to do to be a member? Do I have to do work?
No, you do not have to work if you’re a CSF member. In fact, you don’t have to do anything at all if you don’t want to. If you are interested in becoming involved in the community and earning community service hours, you should join CSF Club. CSF Club raises money through bake sales, staff car washes, movie nights, and other events that go to provide scholarships to graduating seniors who have achieved Sealbearer status and have demonstrated excellence in the areas of academics and community service.

What does it mean to be a “Sealbearer/Life Member” and what do I have to do?
Life Membership (Sealbearer) is achieved by qualifying for chapter membership for four or more semesters in the last three years of high school, and earns the CSF gold Seal on diplomas and transcripts. Grades in 9th grade are for status as an associate member before they can become an actual CSF member in the 10th-12th grades. Becoming an associate member allows students to say they were a 4 year member of CSF which is important when applying to colleges and for scholarships. At graduation, Sealbearers are recognized and receive a gold stole, a CSF pin, and a certificate. (3 scholarships are given to active CSF members)
I have more questions. Who do I talk to?
Most questions can be answered by Audra Gosvener who can be found in the counseling office. Of course, you can also talk to CSF members or the CSF Club office
