Varsity Letter Award Program
This is a very exciting opportunity for our drama members and the department itself. As in any sport or activity where Varsity Lettering is offered, students will need to put forth many hours, hard work and dedication to achieve a varsity letter in Drama. A student will not simply receive a letter for participation. Only the most dedicated, deserving students will earn a varsity letter. Students desiring to receive a Varsity letter in Drama must accumulate 100 points by the end of the Drama Season. Points will be awarded accordingly, based on the various roles (both acting and behind the scenes) and activities in which students can participate.

Membership in National Honor Society is an honor bestowed upon students who have demonstrated exceptional scholarship, leadership, service, and character, and members are expected to continue to excel in these areas after induction. Students do not apply for positions in the society; rather, sophomores and juniors who meet the academic criteria of a 3.500 cumulative GPA are invited to submit additional information and then are evaluated by the Faculty Council. If the Faculty Council decides, by majority vote, that exceptional service, leadership, and scholarship have been clearly demonstrated, the candidate will be invited to be inducted into the Bishop Hartley Chapter of NHS. The chapter meets at least once per month and participates in additional projects that serve both the school and the surrounding community, including a tutoring program here at Hartley and our participation in the annual Evening of Excellence Auction.
Student Eligibility
Selection is based upon the following criteria.
Each candidate must:
Meetings
The chapter meets at least once per month on Thursdays after school. Additional meetings take place in the fall to prepare for Induction and in the spring to prepare for the Evening of Excellence Auction. Participation in the life of the chapter is an expectation of membership, so attendance is important. Meeting dates are provided in advance.
Additional Expectations
Once inducted, members of the National Honor Society are expected to maintain the excellence that earned them membership in the organization. Specifically, members are expected to maintain a 3.500 cumulative GPA and to complete a minimum of 30 hours of approved and verified community service during each calendar year.

Started in 2013 by Hartley students, the Come As You Are Diversity Club is a student-led initiative that aims to raise awareness and foster appreciation for the many backgrounds represented in our student body, the surrounding community, and our nation. Through sharing information, furthering dialogues, and encouraging an appreciation for the diversity present in our school family, the club aims to help form students who are better prepared to contribute meaningfully to our ever more globalized community. In doing so, members hope to create a more tolerant school, city, nation, and world.
Many of the themes addressed by Diversity Club align with nationwide celebrations of diversity, including National Hispanic Heritage Month, Black History Month, Women’s History Month, and Asian and Pacific Heritage Month, to name just a few. Student members are able to bring their ideas to the table each week for how to best address the theme, whether it be a social gathering with food and games or a series of non-fiction article discussions aimed at broadening our knowledge of a particular culture.

All are welcome in this club and we strive to maintain a membership that reflects the same beautiful diversity we see in our student body. Please consider joining us and sharing your experiences with us.

The water polo team is open to boys & girls and is coached by BH Swimming Coach Tony Phillips, assisted by Maura Moore. Both coaches are certified by USA Water Polo. Maura also helps with the USA Olympic Development Program.
Sometimes called the "World's Toughest Sport," water polo athletes combine explosive swimming speed, the throwing power of a baseball pitcher, the vertical leap of a volleyball player, the hands of a wide receiver, the toughness of a rugby player, the endurance of a cross-country skier, and the strategy of a chess player.
The club, founded in 2014 in conjunction with Columbus Water Polo, is composed mostly of swimmers wanting to "keep their feet wet" in the fall, however, some of our best players in recent seasons were athletes who have had a multi-sport background. In 2017, girls placed 7th in Varsity State Championships and the boys placed 8th in Novice State Championships. Sophomore Mia Phillips was awarded All-State Honorable Mention and 2018 grads Lily McClung and Maggie Phillips intend to play this upcoming season for Cleveland State University.
