This pride stemmed from the total success in the newly begun program at John A. Holmes High School this past fall and in the knowledge that the promotions awarded were earned, not given, to the recipient cadets. The seventy - six cadets receiving promotion in signias and their sixty - four counterparts presented an impressive sight to the audience as, in their crisp military attire and professional manner, the Honor Guard Battalion Commander, Staff Com pany Commanders and Platoon and Squad leaders led their groups through their operation exercises. Superintendent John Dunn and Principal Rob Boyce participated in the program by respectively awarding insignias and congratulating the promoted cadets. In his opening remarks, Superintendent Dunn ter med the first Promotion Ceremony a “great day for John A. Holmes High School: in that students were being recognized for results of their achievement and efforts. He credited the success and effectiveness of the NJROTC program on the dedication of instructors Commander Jim Ryan and Chief Doug Campbell, the support and encouragement shown by parents, the leadership provided by. the Edenton - Chowan Board of Education as they reegonized potential and overcame budget restraints, and the self - motivation of the participating cadets. The success and popularity of the NJROTC program is further shown in that one hundred forty students are participating in the first year, where fifty 1 was to have been considered a good number by the end of the first year. The NJROTC program at Holmes is a Naval Science course, taught Just like any other elective course in the school’s curriculum. Naval Science I is offered tills year, with Naval Science n and m to be added each subsequent year. Open to all students, academic courses are taught routinely three days weekly, with two days being drill days. Due to the popularity of the course among students, there are now seven classes held daily. Classrooms and offices are located in the renovated upstairs area of the old National Guard Armory adjacent to Holmes, with (me room in Holmes due to the size of classes. As part of their classroom instruction, Commander Ryan and Chief Campbell teach navigation, naval history, astronomy, meteorology, world geography, maritime geography and oceanography. The in structors are quick to point out that the “courses are taught at a level which demands that students learn.” When asked his insights as to the objectives of NJROTC, Commander Ryan responded that “it is difficult to describe the program by the book, because so much is peripheral”. “The program”, he offered, “tries to mold, motivate and persuade personalities to accept the responsibilities needed to meet the challenges of life.” NJROTC cadets are given the opportunity to learn by doing. Hie program en courages and teaches leadership. Commander Ryan said that one of the basic aims of NJROTC is “to instill in high school students the idea that to get something, he is going to have to put forth effort.” In the program, the cadets are approached as young Thursday, April 15, 1982 adults, with an expectation of the same sense of responsibility and integrity as that for adults. As Chief Campbell lightly put it, “NJROTC students are as' close as you can get to the rad world without mama breaking the plate.” “Students are' held responsible for their own actions or non - actions,” Campbell added. Commander Ryan also feels that the program is quite successful at Holmes this year. He has seen tremendous increases in the sense of responsibility of some students. At least 40 per cent of the students have responded better than average, and certainly better than the 5 or 10 students hoped for during the first year. Cadets rise in rank and rates of command by ac cumulating aptitude points. They know that if they put forth the effort, they will Continued On Page 12-B
