Week 20, December 12-16 2016

Happy Monday!


Parents we are down to the wire, we have 1 1/2  more weeks until the end of the semester. This week will be geared towards make-up. If students still need to make-up uniform grades, Tuesday and Thursday will be the days dedicated to that. If they have made up all the uniform grades, please have them turn in ALL ITEMS EXCEPT for SHOES and SOCKS. Students have the option of either getting shirt, pants and jacket dry cleaned at their expense or pay $4 and we will get it done for them.




Monday - Drill & Ceremony/Unit Test and Quiz make-up


Tuesday - Class Instruction (Portfolio inspection and grade)


Wednesday - Class Instruction (Final Exam Review)


Thursday - Uniform Inspection Make-up/Cadet Challenge Make-up


Friday - Physical Training 


**Congratulations to Falcon Battalion Drill Team who competed against 9 other High Schools and placed in every event."

Week 10 October 10-14

Happy Monday! Everyone seemed to get readjusted last week after the fall break, to include me. This week is homecoming/spirit week so it should be pretty exciting for the students, especially if they participate in the scheduled activities. If students do participate on Thursday, they will be exempt from wearing the uniform. Those students that went on the field trip last week will need to make up that uniform day on tomorrow(Tuesday) in order for zero to be removed.

Parents/Students, I can not stress enough the importance of coming to school daily and on time. When you miss one day, you miss a lot of learning that you will not gain fully by just doing worksheets or reading assignments. Please make every effort to get here and if there are issues preventing you from coming to school, please let either a Teacher or Parent know so we can work through those issues. Listed below is the schedule for this week.




Monday - Drill and Ceremony(Marching in Platoon Formation)


Tuesday - Classroom instruction (Service Learning)


Wednesday - Classroom Instruction (Sexual Harassment) 


Thursday - Uniform Inspection


Friday - Physical Fitness(Grass Drills)

Week of August 15-19

Last week we placed cadets in their organizational structure. Cadets should now know what Squad, Platoon and Company they are in. We also identified who the cadet leadership is for their respective platoons. First year cadets are not given leadership positions this semester because they are still in the learning process. I will say we have some pretty sharp first year cadets and looking forward to them leading next semester. We also introduced the cadets to marching during drill and ceremony and rank structure. First year cadets will receive their uniforms this week. The uniform pants and jackets are to be dry cleaned as often as necessary (PLEASE DO NOT WASH AT HOME). Below is the schedule for this week.

Last week we did introductions, learned cadet creed, battalion and company mottos, expectations in the class and a few ice breakers to get to know each other. This week students will be required to learn drill and ceremony movements and participate in physical fitness training. In addition, we will issue uniforms and go over the grooming standards when wearing the uniform. Listed below is the schedule for this week.

Welcome back to the 2016-2017 school year.  It is my pleasure to have your child in the Junior Reserve Officer’s Training Corps (JROTC) program this year.  I have planned a wonderful year of learning opportunities that will assist them in their future endeavors. I am new to Pebblebrook High School and the Cobb County School district. I have 23 years active duty military experience so I am looking forward to sharing all of my knowledge and experience with your students.
