About The Cadet Program

Cadets is a program which strives to build good attributes of citizenship and leadership. In keeping with this vision, it is expected that the cadets themselves are the primary motivators for their success. While support from parents is important, the best way for you to support you cadet is to encourage them to take responsibility for their training and time management. 

The information listed below, provides a general outline of where your cadet will find the necessary for them to be successful.
​
Squadron Slack Forum
  • All day to day communication and announcements are posted in the Slack Forum. 
  • For security reasons, zoom links will only be posted in level or team channels on the Slack Forum.
  • Slack can be accessed from either a computer or smart phone.
