Color Guard consists of four members: an American Flag, Texas Flag, and two guards. Our team presents or posts colors at different events such as football games, school and community ceremonies, etc. The Guard practices about an hour to an hour and a half the week prior to an event, and sometimes schedules extra practices if necessary.

We hope to get as many cadets as possible involved in Color Guard for the 2009-2010 school year.

Armed Drill Team

The Armed Drill Team is an extremely disciplined group of dedicated cadets who practice and perform silent rifle routines during Parent Days, special JROTC functions (Dining Out, Veteran's Day Parade, etc.), and competitions. The Armed Drill Team routines consist of a number of uniform Manual of Arms moves and difficult spins that show the skill and strength of each cadet. The team members use demilitarized Springfield rifles without slings that weigh 8.5 lbs. Our team practices routinely Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 4-5:30 p.m. every week, consistently. If there is an event coming up within two weeks the team will practice every day during the week for sometimes 3 to 4 hours non-stop.

The team has many goals for this year; one is to prepare ourselves for our first competition during the second semester. Another is to get a new and unique uniform for the Armed Drill Team Members. Also, our team is coming up with a Team Name and a motto to distinguish ourselves from the rest of the Battalion.

Raiders Team

Raiders Team is a physical fitness team that competes at meets to outscore other teams by how many push ups and sit ups they do. Along with that total, they complete a 800 meter run. Raiders' Team practices about three to four times a week. We train in the areas of physical fitness so that we can keep what we learned for next-year team, while at the same time helping ourselves to be above average physically for next year.
