Last week, our AFJROTC cadets had the privilege of visiting our little brothers and sisters at Mother Teresa Academy. Our cadets proudly performed a flag and drill ceremony and taught students the basic principles and movements of drill.
It was a fantastic opportunity for our high school cadets to serve as role models, practice leadership, and share what they’ve learned—while making it fun and engaging for the younger students. Everyone involved had a great time, and the experience was rewarding for cadets and students alike.
We’re grateful for the warm welcome from Mother Teresa Academy and look forward to continuing to give back to our community! #Prep #Family #Community
