Cherokee Charter Academy Beta Club Students Shine at National Conference Cherokee Charter Academy (CCA) Middle School Beta Club students Ashelyn Carden and Alaina Howard recently attended the National Beta Club Conference in Orlando, Florida to compete in the Service Snapshot competition. This competition requires students to create and implement a service project that benefits their community. CCA Beta students created Easter baskets for Never Alone Ministries to share with children the week before Easter. In all, fifty baskets were created and donated. CCA Beta students first presented their project at Beta Leadership Summit in Jekyll Island in March, which qualified them to present at the National Conference along with 25 other elementary, middle and high schools from across the country. Judging criteria focused on students collaboration, communication of ideas and presentation skills.
