Chapter Reports are OPEN!

Chapter Reports  are a great way for you to look back on your accomplishments from the past year. Submitting a Chapter Report also enters your school in the running for an   SPS Outstanding Chapter Award  and other chapter designations. The first 100 chapters to submit their reports will be entered in a drawing for one of five $100 gift cards. Chapter Reports are due June 15!

If your chapter is not submitting a report this year, please complete the first section of the form to update your chapter information for the SPS national office records. Chapters updating their information will also be eligible for prizes!
