Cass Middle School JROTC Field Trip

Donation protected


Please join me in providing deserving students with a "real-life" educational experience!!

Hi, I am retired Lieutenant Commander Sam Edwards, and I sponsor the Cass Middle School JROTC program. I am a Math Teacher at Cass Middle School in Cartersville, GA (https://www.bartow.k12.ga.us/o/cass-middle). I have sponsored this program for more than ten years and receive no pay, nor does this program receive any funding. The Cass Middle JROTC introduces 7th and 8th-grade students to basic military requirements, customs, camaraderie, team building and discipline that are expected in each military service. We call ourselves sea cadets representing sea, air, land, and space services. Cass Middle has the only middle-grade JROTC in the state of Georgia.

Cass Middle JROTC participates in many activities, including presenting colors at all home football games, performing marching and rifle drills at school Pep Rallys, performing in Kiddie Day and Veteran's Day parades, conducting semi-annual fitness tests, running the High School obstacle course, and participating in an annual Military formal dinner.

This fundraiser aims to raise money so students may participate in a field trip to the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park in Mobile, Alabama. (https://www.ussalabama.com) The field trip is scheduled for 2-3 Dec 2022. This field trip will give students a real-life military experience they will always remember. As part of the trip, students will visit the Gulf Coast Exploreum Science Center (https://www.exploreum.com) and witness a re-enactment of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor aboard the USS Alabama Battleship. Our goal of $7500 will pay the cost for each student, which includes bus transportation, hotel, and entrance fees to the park and Science Exploreum.

Thanks for supporting this unique educational experience.
