California Junior Scholarship Federation (CJSF) is a statewide organization of over 600 chapters that fosters high standards of scholarship, service, and citizenship on the part of students of California's public, private and charter intermediate schools. Students must maintain rigorous eligibility standards each semester in order to qualify for membership. For more information, please visit the CSF-CJSF website.
Advisor: Amy Grannis (amygrannis@cusd.com)
Membership Information: In order to become a member, a student must submit an application at the beginning of each semester reflecting the previous semester’s grades. To secure eligibility for California Junior Scholastic Federation membership, a student must earn a minimum of 10 points which are granted as follows:
“A” = 3 points for regular class, 4 points for an honors class
"B" =1 point for a regular class, 2 points for an honors class
“C” = 0 points
No points are earned for PE, a remedial or repeated course, or work experience.
A grade of “D” or “F” on your report card in any class (even PE or aide) disqualifies you from membership.
Honor's Medal: To earn an Honor’s Medal at the Granite Ridge Recognition Day, a student must turn in the CJSF paperwork and meet the eligibility requirements for three semesters: seventh grade fall semester, seventh grade spring semester, and eighth grade fall semester.
Application Information: Students can only apply for CJSF after they have received grades for that semester. No late applications will be accepted, there are no exceptions. Please listen to the daily announcements for CJSF information and reminders as well as the school's social media platforms and school website .
