ACADEMIC TEAM
Our Academic Team competes with other units through academic postals, which are tests cadets may take that are then mailed in to be scored and ranked by highest score. The team also travels to several schools in Clay County to compete with other NJROTC programs in "Brain Brawls." In these competitions, competitors may be asked anything ranging from Naval Science to popular culture or science, and the competitors can answer those questions through the use of buzzers, much like a game show. The first cadet to answer the question gets the points, and the team with the most points wins the competition.
The Academic Team practices every Wednesday from 6:30 AM to 7:00 AM. Academic Team is led by the Academic Team Commander Cadet Mathews.

Our Air Rifle Team practices every Tuesday and Thursday from 1445-1630 and includes shooting at targets (about six cadets at a time) at targets ten meters away. Our team uses air rifles with no pump and they fire low caliber pellets. Recently, we have refurbished our rifle range and we have brand new targets with metal backstops to catch pellets. Our team submits targets to be scored and competed with other schools and units, nationally. In addition, for the first time Rifle Team will be competing in shoulder-to-shoulder (STS) competitions where shooters will fire their targets live with other shooters instead of just sending them in. In order to join Rifle Team, each cadet has to signed parental permission, attend the required safety brief and score a 100% on a safety test. They must do this or they will not be allowed to shoot.
