    I know for a fact that the instructors at Northview High School go well beyond the norm to ensure that these cadets are afforded every opportunity to better themselves. Cudos to the administration for their support of the instructors and cadets. A great big well done to the cadets for all their hard work. Keep it up!!!!!!
