Help me give my students inspirational awards for making a difference and outstanding achievements.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Sperduto's classroom raised $205

This project is fully funded

My Project

My Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (NJROTC) cadets follow three Core Values: Honor, Courage, and Commitment. They continually seek new ways to be the best they can be, honor others, and serve their school and city.

Inspirational award cards, wristbands, and mini trophies will recognize and motivate my students while reminding them how special and appreciated they are.

These inspirational awards will be given to my students, recognizing our Cadet of the Week, Cadet of the Month, rank promotions, outstanding inspections, honor roll, community service excellence, and many more.
