The grant will provide additional learning resources and cultural experiences, helping cadets expand their knowledge of Korean language and culture both inside and outside the classroom. Learn more on our website!

From Commandant Baer: What a a great day for the 138th Missouri Military Academy Corps of Cadets. While all cadets were challenged and some had their doubts they would make it, I am happy to say every new cadet made it and passed the Crucible. The Crucible is a whole of academy effort with staff, faculty and cadets working together to make this such a meaningful experience for our new cadets. Our new cadets showed amazing motivation, perseverance and exceptional teamwork, helping their fellow cadets through this challenging experience. Our old cadets led from the front motivating our new cadets throughout the entire Crucible. Today is an example of the best of MMA!
