Last week, a select few of our best cadets took a trip to our neighboring middle school, WMS, to promote the JROTC program. The presentation was given to all 8th grade students who will be entering the high school next year as freshman, and hopefully, taking AFJROTC as an elective for their freshman year of high school. 8th grade students have the opportunity to sign up for AFJROTC when scheduling their classes for their freshman year (please note that AFJROTC is a scheduled high school class, and does not involve any military obligation), and after showcasing all that our program has to offer, we hope to see many new faces joining us next year as fellow cadets.

Did you catch us Thursday night at the 8th Grade Orientation? A select few cadets volunteered their time to escort the parents of soon-to-be freshman around our High School, and to promote the JROTC program alongside our instructors. We all hope to see new faces in the NJ-20003rd family next year!

On December 6, 2012, the NJ-20003rd was invited to the Board of Education meeting to be recognized for their outstanding performance in the Unit's October 10th inspection. Several cadets attended the meeting and received a note of appreciation for their hard work that helped our unit "Exceed Standards" in the unit's inspection. On behalf of everyone in the NJ-20003rd, we appreciate every cadet who helped make this high honor possible. Everyone is extremely proud of our unit's success.
