Posted Date: 02/03/26 (09:00 AM)


Congratulations to the Piscataway High School Air Force Junior ROTC for an outstanding rating on the unit’s annual inspection! For the first time in the unit’s history, PHS earned “Exceed Standards” – the highest possible rating!

Our cadets have worked very hard to reach this height, and PHS is now eligible to be selected for a Distinguished Unit Award, among other annual awards that are announced in April. These honors are awarded from HQ Air Force JROTC and are determined by evaluation results along with cadet community service hours.  

The annual inspection evaluates the operation, administration, and effectiveness of the AFJROTC program, looking at contractual compliance, cost, and performance objectives. The Exceeds Standards rating indicates exceptional performance in all categories of the program. The unit is led by Senior Aerospace Instructor Lt. Col. Richard Kerr.
