North Carolina Regional Leadership Summit

Our team of 13 Betas has gone above and beyond in every competition at the North Carolina Regional Leadership Summit. For the second year in a row, we are proud to announce that the Randolph Early College High School Beta Club has qualified nationally in every category this year:

Beta Blitz
Project Proposal
Being Better Betas
All the World’s a Stage
Collaboration Connection

Throughout the summit, our Betas had a wonderful time learning, connecting, and participating in leadership challenges that were both character-building and intellectually stimulating. This experience strengthened our teamwork, passion for service and leadership, core values that define what it means to be a Beta.

National Beta Convention 2025

In June, the RECHS Beta Club traveled to Orlando, Florida, to compete at the national level. For the fourth year in a row, RECHS Beta has been named the most awarded club in the nation, an incredible achievement we are all so proud of!

While these awards are exciting, the true impact of RECHS Beta is seen in the countless hours of community service our members contribute throughout the year. They work hard to improve both our school and our county, showing dedication and a strong commitment to service.

We also want to extend our heartfelt thanks to our amazing Beta advisors—Lauren Wood, Philip Schuyler, and Shannon Darcy. Their support and guidance are what make Beta possible, and we are deeply grateful for their efforts.

Penny Stacking Challenge

At the National Beta Club Convention, every participating school was challenged to take on the One-Handed Penny Stacking Challenge, a test of patience, precision, and perseverance, all within just one minute.

Our incredible Vice President, Jonathan, rose to the challenge with unmatched dedication. Determined to secure reserved seating for the Randolph Early College Beta Family, he gave it everything he had.

632 attempts and 13 relentless hours later, Jonathan achieved an astounding 57 pennies stacked in just one minute, a remarkable feat that reflects the spirit, grit, and heart of our Beta Club Family!

Thank you, Jonathan!

Leadership Summit 2024

For the first time in 10 years, Randolph County allowed RECHS to participate in the Leadership Summit at Great Wolf Lodge, where our officers nationally qualified in Lead Outside the Box, Collaboration Connection, and Project Proposal! Our Raven Betas had a blast playing in the arcade, flexing their wolf ears, grooving in the dance parties, and attending the leadership training session, where they learned valuable skills to become even more effective leaders!

National Convention 2024

Over the past few months, National Beta members from Randolph Early College High School worked diligently to prepare for National Beta Convention where they competed in fifty-two areas including academic tests, visual arts, and team competitions such as Marketing and Communications, Convention Invention, Accessorized Design, Scrapbook, and Digital Portfolio. Last week, they celebrated their hard work when announced as winners in thirty-two areas at the 44th annual National Beta Convention at the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center in Savannah, GA. Twenty of the thirty-two were Top 5 placements with five of those being 1st place National Champions. For the 3rd year in a row, RECHS has been the most awarded club at the national level.

RECHS Beta Club members originally competed and received a state-high 50 awards during their State Convention at the Koury Convention Center in Greensboro held in January. Their victories at the state level provided an opportunity to compete at the national level. At this year’s National Convention, 6,100 Senior Betas (grades 9-12) were in attendance, representing over 360 schools from 18 states.
