Clubs and Organizations
Diversity Club
Advisor: Beverly Murphy
Sponsor: Anna Padgett
Meetings: Periodically throughout the year
We celebrate the diverse heritages, ethnicities, and languages represented at PVMS. We seek to inspire inclusion and respect among our students and community. Each February we host a Black History & Diversity Celebration where we highlight our unique student body. We advertise various national heritage months, such as Hispanic Heritage Month, Black History Month, Autism Awareness, Women's History Month, and Asian Pacific American Heritage Month. We also highlight the Indian culture represented at our school.

The Powdersville Middle School chapter of the National Junior Honor Society strives to uphold the pillars of NJHS in all that we do. These exceptional eighth graders promote scholarship, service, leadership, character, and citizenship by maintaining high academic performance, by providing service to others, and by demonstrating the attributes of student leaders at all times. If you know of a need in the community that we could fulfill, please reach out to Dr. Weaver. Be sure to follow our club on Instagram @pvms.njhs to keep up with our latest activities!
Jr. Beta Club
Let Us Lead By Serving Others
7th Grade Advisors: Mrs. Beck & Mrs. Craven
6th Grade Advisors: Mrs. Machamer, Mrs. Nimmons, Mrs. Randolph
The Jr. Beta Club is a national organization that recognizes student achievement. Students with an 85+ average in all classes (including related arts) for both Q1 and Q2 and without suspensions or behavioral issues can become a member of a local club. The Jr. Beta Club stresses service to others. Through service to others, members develop leadership skills. Our goal at Powdersville Middle School is to help create good citizens and build leadership skills through our service to others.
Being a part of the Jr. Beta Club is an honor and a commitment. Members are expected to maintain the high average, attend meetings and participate in Beta projects and school-wide projects.
Qualifying after Q3 and/or Q4 of a given year is not an option. Students who show improvement in their academics toward the end of a given school year should continue that trend into the next school year and receive an invitation then. We are proud of the high standards of Jr. Beta Club at Powdersville Middle and our five-year consecutive streak of being named a National Beta School of Merit.
