Royal ISD MCJROTC has been named a Naval Honor School for the fifth year in a row, the school district announced in an August 11 press release.

This prestigious designation is awarded to the top 20 per cent of all Marine Corps JROTC units in the nation. Units are evaluated on multiple criteria, including volunteer service hours, scholastic achievement, competition performance, ceremonial participation, and Inspector General inspections.

“This honor reflects the dedication, discipline, and exceptional performance of our cadets and instructors,” said a spokesperson for the district in the release. “Congratulations to our Falcon MCJROTC team on this incredible achievement.”

Christine Ramos M.Ed., First Sergeant, Ret., Regional Director, Region 4, said, “I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to our six schools selected as MCJROTC Naval Honor Schools. Your dedication, discipline, and hard work have truly paid off. This recognition is not only a testament to your commitment, but also a great honor for our entire region. You represent us all with excellence, and we couldn’t be more proud. Congratulations once again on this well-deserved achievement.”
