(December 31, 2024) This past weekend was to remember for students in the JROTC program at Padilla High School at the Franklin Campus. On Sunday, December 29, cadets proudly presented the Nation’s colors at the Indianapolis Colts vs. New York Giants game at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. This incredible honor was awarded to a standout group of cadets: Marquan Henderson, Joel Huertas, Yeremiah Oyola, Camil Rodriguez, and Jyson Zorrilla.

Over the years, these dedicated students and their peers have showcased their talents at major sporting events, including NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB games, and NASCAR races.
