Homework Time

Special teams are groups that promote esprit de corps, teamwork, and self-confidence. It provides JROTC cadets a competitive program in mentally and physically challenging training events. Currently at Pahrump Valley High School, there are four special teams. Before any cadet joins the special team of their choice, they must complete a test in Unarmed Drill (UDT) and participate in Homework Time - a tutoring program offered by the program to help cadets with grades. Cadets on special teams must hold a GPA of at least a 2.5.

Practices are held Mondays - Thursdays at 2:30 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Homework Time is a tutoring program held Mondays throught Thursdays from 2:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Many cadets taking honors and AP classes are willing to help cadets with struggling classes in order to keep the battalion shining. Homework Time is held before Special Teams Practice and is mandatory to anyone on a Special Team.
