The next year he was able to open the program school-wide providing even more students the opportunity to explore STEM-related careers. Under 1SG Long’s guidance, the JROTC Robotics Team has continued to improve each year culminating in back-to-back invitations to compete in the VEX Robotics World Championships JROTC Division. 1SG Long is fully dedicated to the leadership and character development of his Cadets and to the opportunities a STEM education can provide.
