• “O” or “G” Grade in Citizenship.       
• Grades of “A”, “B”, or “C” in all subjects.  Any grade below a “C” in any subject on the report card disqualifies the student from membership.

• Students must earn CJSF membership in at least TWO trimesters in the seventh grade and TWO trimesters in the eighth grade.

  CJSF semester points are calculated as follows:

  A grade of “A”                                    3 CJSF points

  A grade of “B”                                    1 CJSF point

  A grade of “C” or “Pass”                  0 CJSF points

  
  

• Major academic subject areas are: math, science, reading, social studies, english, foreign language and religion.       
• Any CJSF student receiving an “S” in conduct in any subject will be put on probation for the next trimester.       
• Any CJSF student receiving an “NI” in conduct will be dismissed from the Federation.
