 Message From The S-5s
Welcome cadets to the month of January! We are starting the
new semester with a new year! We hope you all had a wonderful
Christmas Break, but it’s time to bring out your books and
continue learning. A new year means setting new goals for
yourself and trying to become the best version of yourself!
Whether that means ending old habits and trying new things or
improving certain skills you may have. Remember to always take
care of yourself and be cautious of your surroundings. We are
glad that you all stayed in this program and we hope you have
fun semester with us!

 Message From The Top 3
Welcome to the new year Knights! You guys made it through half of
the school year! The Top 3 hope you guys are focusing on your
academics just as much as JROTC. This month is a very important
month, being less than 2 weeks of the JPA inspection arriving. We
encourage you guys to strive to do your best in everything you do.
We also have CSM young visiting on the 19th, let’s do our best to
greet him with respect. The CSM(Knight Battalion) would also like
to inform LET 1s that Corporal Promotions are now open! Please do
not be afraid to try to rank up, the requirements may be a lot, but
do not be afraid to step up to show the instructors and the Top 3
your dedication! We hope you guys had a great new year and still
want to be in the program and stay for the next semester!
