I can personally vouch that this is an awesome program for our young people as our daughter was a NHS NJROTC cadet and is now a JROTC College Midshipmen.
The Instructors do an excellent job of teaching them all they need to know about the Navy life and go above and beyond in being a role model and mentor to these young cadets in their daily lives. Even well after these young people graduate from NHS, they continue to support them whenever they are needed.
As always, I am so proud of this program and all the young people/cadets who participate in it. “Go Chiefs”
Lakelynn you are so beautiful that was the perfect dress. Sean was handsome this will be just another event in your life to remember to say been there and done that. Love to see a young lady enjoy doing so many things to adventure out and take chances.
