The TCHS AFJROTC Cadets have captured the Distinguished Unit award every year because on average, we gain three thousand hours of community service. We offer our services to many places along the Treasure Coast area in hopes to show our community how much our Cadets care and are willing to take action to better our society. Some Cadets gain over one hundred hours from these events and are able to apply for the Bright Futures Scholarship.
Our Community
Adopt-A-Road
Treasure Coast High School's AFJROTC owns a part of darwin from the school to the light on Port Saint Lucie Boulevard and our cadets take the time to keep this road clean. In collaboration with Keep Port Saint Lucie Beautiful, our cadets are given brightly colored shirts to stand out on the sidewalk and we pick up trash and other litter on the sides of our roads. Making safety our number one priority, a safety video is watched before every clean up and an instructor follows closely behind cadets to make sure everyone is safe. This event takes place at least one Friday per month and we hope all cadets can attend to keep our street looking clean!

Operation Osprey
In collaboration with Oak Hammock K-8, our Cadets take the time to go to this school and teach aspiring cadets how to drill, proper physical training, as well as the raising and lowering of their school's flags. While not being able to do this in the past year due to Covid, we look forward to training these young JR Cadets and prepare them for High School JROTC.

Pack the House Food Drive
The pack the house event is an annual event that provides families in need with care packages for the holiday season. The cadets work for about 3-4 hours packing canned goods and dried foods into these care boxes in order to grow their aspirations to help the community when they become citizens.
