CHfrat,
There were two high school fraternities in my hometown. They were not based on a particular high school. Guys from all four high schools were allowed to be members. They were city chapters, not school chapters. The two we had were Delta Sigma and Sigma Phi Omega. If you are interested, I can find out contact information for you. Also, if the girls in your town want to start a sorority, I can help them, as I have contacts with the Delta Beta Sigma high school sorority.
All three GLOs were well-organized, with National Boards, rules, and rituals. They also had philanthropies. The girls' group is required to do at least one community service or philanthropy fund-raiser a month. The guys groups are not quite as active with philanthropies, but usually pitch in and help the girls. Hazing is against the rules, and most of the guidelines are aligned with those of NPC. Not on purpose, just using common sense.
