Signing Day for a high school student often means a commitment to athletics at the next level.
On March 3rd, Aneeka Reedy signed to serve her state and country as a member of the Army National Guard. She is currently a junior in high school in her fifth semester in the district’s JROTC Program.
Reedy will attend Basic Combat Training this summer and return to high school for her senior year, during which she will train one weekend a month with her Military Police Unit in Nashville, North Carolina.
Following graduation, Reedy will attend Advanced Individual Training and train for her military occupation specialty as a Military Police Officer (31B).
Based on her commitment, Reedy will qualify for 100 percent tuition assistance and begin receiving compensation for drills and federal service time toward retirement, even while in high school.
Fellow MCHS Juniors and Seniors were among the Martin County JROTC members in attendance at the enlistment ceremony.
