Sail and Leadership Academy Graduates

Four PHS NJROTC Cadets graduated from Sail and Leadership Academies.
    Sail Academy. On Friday, July 1st, C/SN Benjamin Robles and C/PO3 Anthony Simons graduated from NJROTC Sail Academy where they learned how to sail various boats leading up to a 2 hour race, known as a regatta, between six large 25 foot sail boats. For the regatta, the instructors were there for safety reasons only. The race was conducted entirely by the 7 person cadet crew. It is an experience and a set of skills these cadets will never forget. In addition, C/ENS Jessica Guerra, a 2010 Sail Academy graduate, served as a Staff Cadet helping the instructors to run the 2011 Sail Academy.
    Leadership Academy. On Saturday, July 2nd, the 2011/2012 unit Commanding Officer, C/LCDR Theresa Mijares, and Executive Officer, C/LT Carolene Vera graduated from NJROTC Leadership Academy where they, along with 174 other cadets from Area ELEVEN, learned advanced leadership skills and practiced teamwork techniques. They both earned to coveted silver aiguillettes and distinguished themselves by making history for the PHS NJROTC Unit. C/LT Vera was one of only two cadets in her platoon to receive a perfect score in Military Drill earning her a Squad Leader position in her platoon. C/LCDR Mijares made history as the first PHS NJROTC Cadet to graduate from Leadership Academy as the Honor Graduate of her platoon. C/LCDR Mijares received the NJROTC Cadet Achievement Award from the NJROTC Area ELEVEN Manager in recognition of her accomplishment.

What is NJROTC???

NJROTC introduces students to the meaning of citizenship, the elements of leadership, and the value of scholarship in attaining life goals.

It should be emphasized that NJROTC is NOT a military recruiting organization, that we DO NOT prepare high school students for military service, and that we DO NOT share student information with any military recruiters.

NJROTC engenders a sound appreciation for the heritage and traditions of America, with recognition that the historically significant role of sea power will still be important in America’s future.

NJROTC is taught in a military format because it works best to help students develop a growing sense of pride in his/her organization, associates, and self. Cadets learn important leadership principles such as how to manage time, how to give and receive instructions, how to communicate effectively, how to motivate people, how to work as a team, and how to accept responsibility. Cadets receive instruction in Nautical Sciences such as navigation, meteorology, and first aid, as well as military drill and ceremonies.

Competitive team extracurricular activities are available after school. The NJROTC teams compete against other JROTC units in regional and national competitions in military drill, academics, physical fitness, orienteering, and marksmanship.
