4-H Youth Development
|
 |
4-H Clubs
4-H
Club Membership:
Youth may become 4-H members when they enter
the third grade and may continue their membership through the completion of grade 12. Each
individual may continue membership for a maximum of ten (10) consecutive years.
Exceptions:
(1) Youth who enroll in grade three and are
advanced academically (thus graduating early) may continue for a total of 10 years ONLY if the
enrollment occurs in consecutive years.
(2) Those youth who are academically
advanced and “skip” 3rd grade, may begin the program as a 4 th
grader and may continue for a total of 10
years ONLY if the enrollment occurs in consecutive years.
(3) Those youth who entered the program in 3 rd
grade and for one reason or another leave formal
education prior to the completion of 12th
grade may continue for a total of 10 years ONLY if the
enrollment occurs in consecutive years.
NOTE: 10 years of membership in the 4-H
Youth Development is an opportunity --- not an entitlement.
Those youth who do not enroll as 3 rd
grade students or meet the exceptions above, conclude their involvement with the program during the
summer immediately following the completion of their senior year in high school.
An individual’s 4-H grade is determined by
the school grade in which he or she is classified regardless of the time of year he or she enrolls in
4-H. A member does not advance in 4-H grade until he or she enrolls in 4-H for the subsequent school
year. Each member should enroll in the division of a project that would best suit his/her interest and
potential for personal growth and would enhance their family involvement.
Opportunities in the 4-H program are
available to all Indiana youth as defined regardless of race, religion, color, sex, national origin,
marital status, parental status, sexual orientation or disability.
Married young men and women of 4-H age may
participate in any of the 4-H projects and activities. However, married persons must participate by
the same terms and conditions and/or guidelines as unmarried participants.
Membership in 4-H is
gained by annually enrolling through a Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service
Office located in each of Indiana's 92 counties.
The 4-H club year usually extends from one
annual 4-H exhibit to the next. Enrollment is an annual process attained by completing the
appropriate county 4-H enrollment form. Each county establishes its own enrollment deadline.
The Franklin County Enrollment Deadline is
March 1.
