Way to go Cadets! Keep leading from the front!

Congratulations to C/1st Lt Shiloh Grim for earning the Dream Team Scholarship. We’re proud you are a part of the NHS JROTC Grizzly Battalion. Semper Fi.

🎯 Northridge High School JROTC Air Rifle Shooting Team - Teamwork Pays Off! 🎯

The NHS JROTC Air Rifle Shooting Team finished in 4th place at the Marine Corps JROTC National Championships in Anniston, AL, on February 14th & 15th! With 19 teams and 96 shooters in the competition, our team worked together, pushed each other to new heights, and made it to the top!

The top 7 teams from each service will move on to the All-Service Nationals in March, and we’re proud to say Northridge earned its spot!

Congratulations to Tim Longacre for finishing 5th overall individually and earning his CMP Junior Distinguished badge after three years of hard work and dedication. 🏅

We also want to highlight Marcos Morales, a novice shooter who made his first appearance at the national level of competition! Marcos showed incredible poise and maturity, and we’re excited to see his growth and potential in the future. 🙌

This event wasn’t just about the competition, however, – our team also spent time learning and growing together at the Anniston Natural History & Berman Museum, making this an experience that went beyond just shooting.

We couldn’t be more proud of how each member came together, learned from each other, and supported one another every step of the way. Here’s to teamwork, growth, and the journey ahead!
Go Grizzlies!

A huge CONGRATULATIONS to our Marksmanship Team for successfully defending their State & Regional Championship titles by finishing 1st Place in the 2024 Colorado JROTC State Championships and 1st Place in the 2024 Rocky Mountain Regional CMP Cup!!!

The team's unwavering commitment and countless early mornings of disciplined practice continue to pay off. After taking home the top honors in the State for four of the past five years, these cadets continue to demonstrate exceptional determination and skill, proving once again that hard work and perseverance lead to victory. Let's keep this momentum rolling as you all prepare to compete against the best in the country at the Marine Corps Junior ROTC Service Nationals in Alabama in February 2025!

We are excited to share the amazing continued successes of the Northridge High School MCJROTC Shooting Team this fall! Here's a recap of the team's most recent achievements:

The team also swept the three Centennial Rifle League matches to take home the competition's top honors. Along with their impressive first place finish over 24 teams, the individual standings were equally as impressive as all four team members finished in the top seven in a pool of 107 competitors!
1st Place: Timothy Longacre

The Northridge MCJROTC program celebrated the 249th Birthday of the Marine Corps at the UNC Ballroom on November 16, 2024, and we would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our Cadets, families and esteemed guests for attending. Your presence made the evening truly special as we honored the legacy of the Marine Corps. Additionally, the cadets involved in the ceremony performed flawlessly before the packed room of 350 guests, showcasing their hard work and dedication to maintaining only the highest standards of the United States Marine Corps. Great job to you all!

A special thank you to Colonel Robert Bodisch for joining us as our distinguished Guest of Honor, and for providing us all with inspiring words and anectodes from a storied career spanning over three decades!

The evening was made extra special with the program's Battalion Commander, C/Major Ethan Kintzley being presented the Legion of Valor (LOV) Bronze Cross by Col Bodisch. The LOV is the highest award bestowed upon a cadet, and this year it was awarded to only four of the roughly 27,000 MCJROTC cadets throughout the United States and overseas; a testament to Ethan's exceptional dedication and leadership. Congratulations, C/Major Kintzley!

This was truly an evening to remember, and we look forward to celebrating the milestone 250th with you all next year!

SEMPER FIDELIS!!!

On behalf of Northridge High School, we extend our sincere gratitude to Ash Janssen and team at FUZION for their generous donation of $5000. Your support will greatly contribute to the funding of our MCJROTC program, and we are deeply appreciative of your commitment to our mission.
