So Why Join?

Members of the Serteens Club of Hawaii are select students whose scores on nationally recognized standardized tests are 98% or higher. They are leaders in the classroom and in their community. Through their extracurricular community service projects, Serteens give themselves an extra edge when applying for scholarships and college admissions. Serteen members also benefit from contacts through the Serteen Alumni network.

These are not the only benefits however. In the Serteen Program, members build lasting friendships with other gifted and talented students from different schools. Serteens also gain valuable leadership and life skills while serving mankind.
