Unit Weekly News for 26 Aug - 2 Sep

Greeting parents and guardians,

We’re off to a great start and thank you all for helping to make this happen.   You’ll notice several teams are hosting their initial interest meetings for new members to join.  Other teams will come online in the weeks ahead.

Commander’s Call and first uniform day, Wednesday Aug 28th – All cadets will wear the Alternate Duty Uniform (Black polo w/khakis) for the school day and report to the auditorium during 4th period.  Permission slips have been sent home with students for attendance during 4th period  to attend Commander’s Call, where cadets will be introduced to the wing commander, command staff, all the team commanders and will be briefed on upcoming team competitions, field trips, and scholarship opportunities for this year.  Parents and teachers are required to sign off on the permission slip in order for each cadet to attend.

Additionally, Seniors and Juniors are invited to attend a field trip to the Trident Technical College Aeronautical Training Center on Thursday Sep 5th to learn more about educational and employment opportunities in aviation along with 2 and 4 year degree options.  Cadets taking AS200 curriculum are also invited to fill any remaining seats, however priority is to Seniors and Juniors.  If any parents are interested in chaperoning, please contact me directly.  The trip will depart school at 0930 and we should return by 1pm.

Reminder Registration papers are due this week – In particular the DD2 Sports Physical: this is required by the district for cadets to participate in our weekly physical fitness training.  Failure to complete and turn in the physical signed by a medical provider will affect their grade as cadets without a physical cannot participate and meet the training requirements.
