CJSF is only open to eighth grade students for the Fall semester. However, both eighth and seventh graders can apply for the Spring semester. Our meetings will be once a month during the Access period. All meetings will be held in the gym. Our first meeting will be an informational meeting, and we will hand out applications at the end of our meeting for those students interested in applying for membership. We will take attendance at all meetings.

The purpose of CJSF is to foster high standards of scholarship, service and citizenship on the part of California students in grades seven and eight.
Students must apply each semester, and acceptance is granted according to the previous semester’s grades. Applications must include a copy of the preceding semester transcript and a membership check (LCMS CJSF) for $15.00. Each student will receive a membership card each semester.
Seventh graders may apply for the first time during the second semester.
Students are required to complete five volunteer hours per semester (2 school, 2 community and 1 choice). Informational flyers and due dates will be announced during the regular meetings.
Two service projects and two field trips are scheduled for each school year. Details, dates and permissions slips will be distributed at the CJSF meetings.
CSF (California Scholarship Federation) is the high school affiliate. We encourage all students to apply for membership in high school.
