JROTC PROGRAM: (INFORMATION NEEDED)
OUR TEAMS:
The Honor Guard is open to all cadets who are LET-2 or above. The Honor Guard performs at Homecoming, Military Ball, and other requested events throughout the year.
All students that are enrolled in JROTC are automatically part of the Color Detachment. The Color Detachment is very active and participates in many parades in the local communities.
The Honor Guard is part of the Color Detachment and participates in events and ceremonies around the community that do not require the full detachment.
The Rader Team is open to all cadets who wish to participate on our most physically demanding team. Cadets are screened to ensure that they can endure the rigors of rope bridge, first aid, 5K run, land navigation and physical training.
The Drill Team is open to all cadets who enjoy marching. The cadets compete against other schools across the state for the prestige of being the best of the best.
We are fortunate to be one of the few schools to offer a motor pool. The cadets maintain five vehicles that are used in static displays, community events and parades.
Mounted Color Guard:
This is a new addition to our teams and is participates in parades around the community
As you can see, we have a very unique program with numerous opportunities for cadets to get involved.
For Parents: We are always in need of parental support and invite all parents to help and attend competitions in which their cadet competes. For more information please check out our Booster Association page.
