Boys & Girls Athletics
Our goal is to improve the quality of life for all students and ensure that student-athletes grow and develop both in and outside of the classroom, thereby positioning them to become successful. Athletic tryouts are announced as the season approaches. Students must have a current physical in order to participate.
The Color Guard Team (Armed/Un-armed)
The Stockard LCC Color Guard normally consist of four cadets per team. They are expected to present the colors (U.S. Flag) proudly and sharply at ceremonies, competitions, community parades and school events. Individuals selected for this team will represent Stockard M.S. at various competitions this year.
The Drill Team
The Stockard LCC Drill Team is made up of cadets who are particularly interested in the sharpness and precision of marching and working as a team. The drill sequence that we use was developed by Military Close Order Drill and the Manual of the Arms. Students on the Drill Team are expected to be the elite of the LCC unit and set the highest standards in sharpness, discipline, performance and appearance (in uniform). Both teams compete each year against 32 other LCC programs in the district. Students not enrolled in LCC are also able to join.

NJHS will serve our community, school, and other organizations through fun service projects throughout the year. As a member of NJHS, students will have the opportunity to create a network of intelligent, hard-working friends and have a chance to give back through service. Members will receive an invitation to join based on academic status.
