Good morning Seahawk Nation,
April showers bring May flowers. What do May flowers bring? Pilgrims! Dad joke of the day :). Happy 1st day of May!

- This past Saturday we spent the day with the Class of 2027 preparing and readying them for a successful four-year career at DMA. The newest members of the Seahawk Nation began their day with an academic placement test, followed by a physical fitness assessment and we completed the day with a New Cadet Orientation with parents, guardians and families introducing them to the DMA way. The class of 2027 appears to be ready, motivated and eager to take on the challenges and adventures that lie ahead! Again, thank you to everyone who ensured the DMA brand was represented in a first class manner!
- Yesterday, Mr. Townsend, Mrs. Kryzanowski, and Mrs. Soltow spent their Sunday at DMA with about 45 of our cadets preparing for the Advanced Placement tests that begin this Wednesday. This speaks volumes to their commitment of our cadets and their success! In the same breath, we applaud the commitment and dedication of the cadets who attended the study session to be as ready and prepared as possible. BRAVO ZULU to all hands!
