Journalism Contract

Journalism Class Contract

I _________________ understand that while Journalism is an elective, it is also very important in that my complete cooperation is needed. I will be in class on time. I will do what is asked of me. I will be exactly where I’m supposed to be when I’m supposed to be, or I understand that I will face disciplinary consequences. I will give 100% participation to this class because so many others are depending on me to do my jobs and do them well. I will not discuss the contents of this class with anyone who is not in the class. Everything is confidential. I understand the above requirements for Journalism class.

BCS Interact is a service organization in conjunction with the Rotary Clubs of McMinnville. Our motto is “Service Above Self”. We take pride in the fact that we have “the best of the best students” who are willing to live by the “4-Way Test”. We devote our time to service projects by helping in five different areas: school, community, international, club fellowship, and district fellowship. Our club is exclusive because we want those who truly have the proper BCS attitude and live by a strong moral code. If you are not willing to participate, to volunteer, and to work without whining, then do not apply. Not everyone who submits an application will be inducted in the club due to the limited number of members that we may have each year.

What extracurricular activities have you participated in during high school?


List 3 ideas you have for Interact.

What service projects have you participated in during high school?


In your high school career, have you been sent to the principal for any disciplinary procedure? If yes, why?


Do you understand that you will be required to attend no less than 90% of all Interact meetings?

You will be required to work and document at least 15 service hours to remain active in the club. You will be required to work and document at least 20 service hours to be eligible for convention in March. Each Interact member will be required to attend several Rotary meetings.

In the space provided, write a 250 word essay discussing why you want to be in Interact and what you would contribute to this organization.

I understand that I must keep a 2.8 GPA (or higher) at all times. I understand that the sponsor and/or Mr. Harper reserve the right to terminate my membership, after due process, if I do not maintain the high standards of Interact. I understand that being a member of Boyd’s Interact is a privilege. I will not abuse that privilege.
I will do my best to uphold the principles of Interact and of Boyd Christian School at all events and will behave in a responsible manner. I realize that I am representing the school, and I will obey the Interact dress code. I will act appropriately so as not to tarnish what Boyd’s Interact has worked diligently to achieve.
I understand that completing this application does NOT guarantee membership into Interact.
