SOCIETY FOR ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT The S.A.A. is an international honor so- ciety founded in 1959 at Quincy, Illinois, by Kiwanis and medical organizations, It is dedicated to motivate youth to achieve academic excellence and to secure a col- lege education and to win the cold war, Community organizations are sponsors of these programsg the Rotary Club is Aurora's sponsor. The S.A.A. is the high school counterpart of Phi Beta Kappa, the great collegiate honor society. Society for Academic Achievement mem- berships are granted annually not to ex- ceed ten percent of the boys and ten per- cent of the girls in the graduating classes. The minimum requirement for students is 100 points which must be accumulated in the seven semesters preceding the last senior semester, Points are awarded according to the courses taken, whether they be strictly academic courses or non-academic courses, More points are given for an A than for a B , A total of 125 points secured by a student will give him the inscription of cum laude on his award certificate. This award is significant be- cause of the stimulus it gives students to achieve a higher level of achievement in courses that are of the most importance. Education is man's most priceless pos- session, for no one can take it away from him. Many potential leaders have refused the opportunities offered or have not been challenged to move ahead. The S.A. A. em- phasizes the importance of education to meet the standards and high purposes our nation must achieve, Stimulus, challenge, and an education which will bring personal fulfillment and supply service to our country.
