    Gaston Early College High School Named National Beta School of Distinction

    Dallas, NC, July 27, 2023 - Gaston County is proud to announce that Gaston Early College High School is a 2022-2023 National Beta School of Distinction. The school earned this recognition by increasing their club’s membership by at least 10% from last year.

    National Beta School of Distinction is an honor for Beta clubs striving towards academic achievement, exemplary character, demonstrated leadership and service to others. With an ongoing quest to instill these qualities in more students, the National Beta School of Distinction Award is designed to award those schools that show an increase in membership from the previous school year. This year, only 2,643 Beta Clubs across the country received this award.

    In a congratulatory letter to the school, Bobby Hart, CEO said “This national award speaks highly of your commitment to academic excellence and illustrates your dedication to preparing students for their future.

    Award recipients will receive a National Beta School of Distinction banner to proudly display as a symbol of their accomplishment.
