    Bravo Zulu to these cadets for all the hard work they put in. The NJROTC program is a great program, (my 2 sisters and I went through it and had a blast) and it also gives you a sense of becoming a well informed citizen and perhaps even prepare you for the armed forces. Hooyah NHS and hooyah Navy.

    Awesome program indeed, you all look wonderful! :)

    I’m so proud of the structure and discipline the students take away from this program which carries over into their future endeavors, no matter if they go Military or remain Civilian. I have witnessed first hand, the one on one care and attention each student receives from this program, that sometimes they don’t receive at home and/or in their personal lives and it makes a huge difference in the outcome of decisions these young people make moving forward. I also have witnessed the close knit relationship they have with one another, this program to them is like having a 2nd family, which this day in time, it’s really important.

    I too am a proud parent of a former Northview NJROTC cadet who worked her way up to EXO her Senior year and is continuing her education as a ROTC midshipmen in College and graduates this May to be commissioned as an United States Navy Officer.

    Parents, if you have the opportunity to encourage your child to enroll in this program their 8th grade year, I promise you, you will not be disappointed in what they learn and take away from this program.
