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
4th 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 3rd 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 3rd 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.
