2022 – 2023 has been a great year for the Raptor Battalion. Cadet Captain Siddharth Singh, a senior, scored a perfect 36 on the ACT and was named Valedictorian for 2022 – 2023 school year. Cadet major Camden Walker, a junior, scored a perfect 36 on the ACT and also received a perfect score on the PSAT.

This makes four National competition debuts for the Raptor Battlion in two years. Last year, the Acadmic team also went to JLAB and the Raptor Robotics team won the JROTC Vex Robotics national championship in Dallas, TX.
