Summary

This transcript records a school ceremonial event (JROTC Pass in Review) featuring cadet formations, recognition of instructors and families, and identification of cadet leaders; it does not include civic agenda items, motions, or votes.

The transcript records an annual JROTC Pass in Review ceremony involving cadets from Washington, Lincoln, and Roosevelt high schools within Sioux Falls School District 49-5. An opening speaker framed the event as a time-honored military tradition focused on demonstrating discipline, leadership and teamwork. The speaker emphasized that JROTC aims to build citizenship and leadership rather than to recruit for military service and thanked instructors, school administrators, parents and guardians for supporting the cadets’ preparation.

The address highlighted the effort behind the presentation — uniform preparation, synchronized marching and cadet leadership — and encouraged graduating seniors to "pass the torch" to underclassmen. The ceremony identified cadet leaders by school: Washington High School Army JROTC is led by Cadet First Lieutenant Airlin Clark and Command Sergeant Major Xavier Curry; Lincoln High School Marine Corps JROTC is led by Cadet Captain Angel Chinabow and Cadet First Sergeant Mason Bowen; Roosevelt High School Air Force JROTC is led by Cadet Colonel Cedric Cannongater and Command Chief Master Sergeant Adam Henley.

The event closed with instructions for photo-taking outside the entrance to allow Washington High School staff to commence recovery operations, and the cadet units were dismissed.
