In June, one member, Halo Martin was able to celebrate that hard work when she was named a national finalist in her Elementary Drawing competition.

The National Convention, held in Orlando, FL, provided all students the opportunity to compete at their comfort level, virtually or on-site. More than 13,000 Junior Beta (grades 4-8) and Senior Beta (grades 9-12) students represented their respective schools in the first National Beta Hybrid Convention. Hardin Reynolds is very proud of these Rebels and looks forward to seeing what they will continue to do with their Beta clubs.
