In early February, twenty freshmen cadets got the chance to visit the S.T.A.R.S. Monmouth Country Sherrif training building. The S.T.A.R.S. training facility is meant to give live and realistic simulations for authorities to practice their awareness skills, weapon skills, and quick-thinking abilities that can ultimately save lives. Cadets got the chance to try out the interactive training screen which gave cadets scenarios that they had to de-escalate. Some of the scenarios consisted of a child trying to rob a store, a noise complaint at a party, a protest in a political building, and much more.  

Our Academic team placed first overall for academics at the Area 4 Championship. The Colts Neck NJROTC Academic squad hasn't placed first for academics at this competition for nine years - until now. We are quite pleased with our progress. In an effort to keep getting better, our teams are beginning to get ready for the Navy Nationals in the spring. 

On 9, February, 2024, our unit held its annual Area Manager Inspection. Over two-hundred cadets completed inspection, marched the ceremony and watched our combined drills teams that followed. During the ceremony our unit honored graduating seniors on a well accomplished four years in the NJROTC program at Colts Neck Highschool. In addition to the ceremony, our unarmed and armed exhibition drill teams and freshman drill team had the opportunity to present their routines infront of NJROTC parents and fellow cadets. Following the ceremony cadets sat down for a delicious meal provided by our wonderful parents club. We are very pleased to announce that all of our cadets passed the inspection, Bravo Zulu cadets!
