CDH JROTC Cadets Shine at Fall Review

October 10, 2018

The Cretin-Derham Hall JROTC conducted its Annual Fall Review, with more than 240 cadets (23% of the student body), on September 26, 2018. The review is designed to formally welcome the ninth grade class into the Corps of Cadets and recognize those who have displayed emerging leadership skills. Our corps was blessed with a beautiful fall day as they marched on Wingerd Field in fine fashion. This was the first formal event to celebrate the 101st year of JROTC at CDH.  

Colonel Michael Stinnett, current Director of the Army JROTC from Fort Knox, KY, addressed the cadets about leadership challenges, the great legacy of the Cretin-Derham Hall JROTC program, and the positive impact of JROTC students in their community.

Congratulations to the following members of the Class of 2022 who were recognized for emerging leadership skills:
