Green Wave Navy honors cadets
GREENVILLE – The Green Wave Navy held its first awards ceremony on May 2 in the school cafeteria.
These awards were presented in front of the student body in years past.
“We felt that it was important for our parent to see the accomplishments and rewards that their cadets had made over the school year,” said Chief Stephen Eldred the Naval Science Instructor at Greenville Senior High School.

Cadets were presented with Exceptional Personal Appearance Ribbon (a cadet was only allowed to miss one uniform day each quarter to be eligible for the ribbon), Exemplary Conduct (a cadet could not have received any suspension for the year to earn this ribbon), Aptitude (present to cadets who demonstrate exceptional military aptitude and dedication to the NJROTC program) and Naval Science 1, 2, 3 or 4th Outstanding Cadet (a cadet must have above a B average for the year)
