Founded in 1934, the National Beta Club is an academic honor society which acknowledges and rewards outstanding students for their accomplishments in the classroom, leadership qualities, character, and service involvement to school and community. Here at HCHS, our Beta Club is comprised of students who, because of their worthy character, good mentality, credible achievement, and commendable attitude, have been approved for membership by the executive head of the Hickman County High School; provided, of course, that these students meet the requirements as set in the By-Laws of this organization as appended below.
