- What is CSF? Can anyone become a member? What is the benefit of membership?
Beverly Hills High School´s highest scholarship recognition is California Scholarship Federation. CSF is a unique statewide organization established in 1921, whose purpose is the promotion of interest and pride in high school standards of scholarship.
Individual membership is in the local chapter (BHHS) and is based on grades earned each semester. A point system specified in the State CSF constitution establishes the membership requirements, which essentially require that students do very superior work primarily in academic subjects. Membership is neither automatic nor compulsory. The student must apply for membership during the first few weeks of a given semester. Membership is for one semester only, but may be renewed for another semester whenever the student again meets the requirements. There is a membership fee. A student who is a member of CSF for four out of six semesters in Grades 10, 11, 12, including one semester of the senior year, is designated a Sealbearer. This entitles the student to a gold seal gold to wear at graduation and a gold seal on the diploma.
- If students participate in a sport do they need to buy PE clothes?
No. However students on teams are responsible for maintaining the uniforms that they are issued.
- What does "sports conditioning" consist of when a student is "out of season" for his sport?
It's a conditioning program, built around a weight training program and a cardio-vascular program. The class is designed to help you to get into shape or in some cases maintain your fitness. It is much more difficult than a regular physical education class.
- How can we receive a schedule of games or meets for sports our children are taking part in?
The schedule is posted on highschoolsports.net.
