Kitty Hawk Air Society

1. PURPOSE: These by-laws briefly outline the objectives of the Newark High School Chapter, of the

Ohio Kitty Hawk Air Society, for the information and action of all cadets. These by-laws supersede and

replace previously adopted bylaws to the Ohio State Constitution of Kitty Hawk Air Society.

2. GENERAL: The Kitty Hawk Air Society (KHAS) Chapter at OH-20091 AFJROTC will be known as

the Newark High School Chapter. This chapter is organized at Newark High School, Newark, Ohio.

3. OBJECTIVES: KHAS shall promote higher academic standards, be of service to the school and

community, promote self-confidence and initiative, develop leadership ability, encourage academic

excellence, and further educational development in the post high school years.

4. MEMBERSHIP: The members of the organization must be enrolled in the Newark City School

District as full-time high school students and must be registered for at least one Aerospace Science

Course during the school year.

4.1. All sophomore, junior and senior cadets enrolled in the AFJROTC program are considered for an

invitation to join this honor society. An invitation to join will be extended only to those cadets of good

character who have a minimum academic average of a “B” in AFJROTC and a cumulative 3.0 (“B”)

average without any failing grades during the preceding grading period. The decision to extend or not

extend an invitation will be based primarily upon three factors. First, the comments of a school official

who has access to student discipline records will be considered. Second, each cadet's record of behavior

and duty performance in AFJROTC and other school classes and activities will be considered. Third,

each potential member must achieve the currently established grade standards for Aerospace Science and

other courses.

4.2. Members must maintain KHAS standards. The performance of each member will be evaluated at the

end of each grading period. Factors considered in evaluating members will be the same as those used to

evaluate potential members. Any member who fails to maintain the grade standards and all other

standards of the KHAS will be placed on probationary status until they again satisfy established

standards.
