Introducing the NOMMA 2026-2027 Cadet Leaders

Meet the cadets who are leading the NOMMA Corps of Cadets for the 2026-2027 school year!

Since August, these cadets have stepped into leadership roles, setting the standard, supporting their fellow cadets, and representing the values of Academics, Leadership, and Citizenship.

Their leadership is built on responsibility, discipline, teamwork, and a commitment to serving others.

We are proud to recognize our 2026-2027 Cadet Leaders and the example they set each day.

Lead by example. Lead with purpose. Lead the NOMMA way.

Developing Tomorrow’s Leaders Today!
We Are NOMMA.

🇺🇸We are proud to celebrate Freedom Week at NOMMA! 🇺🇸

Our cadets had the opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations about freedom, citizenship, and what it means to uphold the principles that shape our nation as we welcomed Louisiana Department of Education Superintendent Cade Brumley and Assistant Superintendent Germain Gilson to campus.

At NOMMA, we are committed to Developing Tomorrow’s Leaders Today through academics, leadership, and citizenship. Our cadets learn about the founding principles of our nation, the United States Constitution, and the rights and responsibilities that come with citizenship, not just during Freedom Week, but every day.

Freedom isn’t free, but learning how to protect it is what we do best. 🇺🇸

Thank you to the Louisiana Department of Education for highlighting the importance of civic knowledge and engagement in our schools. Special thanks to Louisiana Association of Public Charter Schools for their support and for helping to make this event possible!

Celebrate Freedom Week at NOMMA!

This week, we celebrate the founding principles of our nation and the freedoms protected by the United States Constitution.

As Louisiana public schools observe Celebrate Freedom Week, NOMMA cadets are reminded of the importance of citizenship, civic responsibility, and understanding the rights and responsibilities of every American.

Through Marine Corps JROTC, our cadets develop the knowledge, character, and leadership skills to make a positive difference in their communities.
