Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
Our cadets learn about leadership, community service and citizenship through our Air Force JROTC program in the Inland Valley. The cadets are wonderful and find JROTC as a safe haven where they can study and socialize with their friends. Over half of the students qualify for free or reduced-price meals.
Some of our cadets are the brightest students in the school.
Some of our cadets have real challenges, personally and academically. The cadets think of our program as being part of a "family" and as such we strive to provide them assistance and mentorship in order to help them reach their goals.
My Project
The irons are boring but the need is great. A few students need access to an iron to properly prepare their JROTC uniforms for weekly inspection. We have the ironing boards but we need the irons.
The models and supplies for building them are to create a model building contest for the JROTC cadets that will help build their understanding and appreciation of history and air power.
Cadets from each class will be given a model to build. This will facilitate team-building, leadership and build esprit de corps. The winners will earn points toward the semester-long Honor Flight competition.
The football flags are used in variety of fitness activities, including flag football. This is a morale building effort. The nerf footballs are specifically to help teach cadets how to throw a football without letting them get injured with a real one.
