Cadets Shine at Alpha Academy!

By Student Life

The Fayetteville Division Sea Cadets made waves this June with their continued dedication and impressive achievements. As part of their rigorous training, cadets completed swim qualifications and participated in “Boot Camp,” learning key Navy skills like seamanship and damage control. Fundraisers like Valentine’s rose sales, popcorn treats, and a community yard sale showcased their creativity and teamwork. Alpha Academy was proud to host the Sea Cadet Color Guard, who honored our elementary school and 8th grade/senior graduation ceremonies with their presentation of the United States flag—continuing a longstanding tradition of discipline and respect. We celebrate our cadets’ hard work and look forward to their next milestones!
