Physical Fitness Training/Team Building Updated 10 Feb 2017 General Info: Last Friday (03 Feb) the Commandant addressed the regiment regarding the importance of their appearance in uniform. He made it very clear what our expectations are with regard to grooming and uniform policy and the consequences for non-compliance. Generally speaking, cadets look phenomenal! Unfortunately, if just one cadet does not look the part it negatively affects DMA’s reputation and we are perceived, by some, to not place the requisite emphasis on something that is at the core of what we’re all about. Cadets at bus stops, or walking to and from campus out of uniform, were reminded that they should expect immediate disciplinary action. Those, who are out of regulations, will have an opportunity to explain their nonconformity at a Disciplinary Review Board. I genuinely hope we all agree that this should be non-negotiable so let’s work together to ensure we’re representing DMA with pride and professionalism at ALL times! ACT Test Day...

Open House for Prospective Cadets (9:00am-1200) Week of 26-30 Oct 2015 Prepare for Mid-terms Updated 14 Oct 2015 General Info: Next week (October 19-23) will be DMA's College Application Week!! The CAW committee met a few weeks ago and have a great week planned and we are excited to share them with you!!
This note will have a lot of information so please read it carefully so you and your cadets don't miss out on some of the fun activities. Our theme this year is "Yes, I can!!" This program is designed for two purposes:
1. To create a college going culture in the school. We are a college preparatory school and our intent is that all cadets graduate prepared to enter a post-secondary program. This program will help cadets at all grades to become aware of different college options and encourage them to think about college as a future option.
2. To assist all our senior cadets with the application and financial aid process. ​
Monday 10/19 “Ask Me Monday” ~ teachers in all classes will be sharing their college and/or military experience with the cadets and answering questions about their post HS journey.
Understanding High School requirements: The counselors will be visiting sophomore Naval Science classrooms to discuss the requirements for graduation, honors/AP options, value of a strong GPA, etc.
College Door Decorating Judging (2:00 pm) ~ The best door will earn a pizza party (Monday 10/26) and the teacher will win a $100 Staples gift card to be used for supplies in the classroom. We will post pictures on the website after the judging is complete. College "BINGO" cards are collected by 1st block teachers on Wednesday morning. Only completed cards should be turned in and any cadet who completes the ENTIRE card will be entered for a chance to win a prize. Beginning the college process: The counselors will be visiting junior Naval Science classrooms to discuss the college process and to help cadets to understand their options and how to get started. This will help them to prepare for the challenges they will encounter over the next year and a half.
DMA Alumni will be coming in to speak to junior Naval Science classes about their college experience, the pitfalls to avoid and what they wish they had known when they were in high school.
· Every senior cadet is encouraged to complete between four and six applications for college. To help facilitate this goal, we will bring the mobile laptop cart in to the 12th Grade Naval Science classrooms so cadets can complete college applications. Volunteers from local organizations and local college admissions officers will be here all day on October 22nd and 23rd to assist cadets with their applications. Any senior cadet that is not enrolled in Naval Science in the first semester will be able to sign up for lab time.
1. Parents can send a credit card with their cadet to pay the fee OR: 2. The cadet can save the application (in most cases) and put the credit card information in at home. If a cadet qualifies for a fee waiver, they will be available for them at the time they complete the application. Qualified cadets can receive up to four fee waivers.
DMA Business classes are working on PowerPoint slides for colleges that are within a 200 mile radius of the school ~ this will be shown in the mess hall during lunches all week.
