This past week, active members of different military branches have visited Law to provide information to students looking forward to go into the service after high school. Guidance head Mrs. Dunnuck spoke to The Advocate about this past week and its importance.

Ian Hugo: Which branches of the military have joined us this week?

Mrs. Dunnuck: The branches that have joined us are:  Army, Air Force, Marines, Navy and Army National Guard.

IH: How long has Law had Military week?

MD: Law has hosted a Military Week for the last 5 years.

IH: Why is it important for students looking to join the military to be able to speak directly to active members?

MD: It is important for students looking to join the military to be able to speak directly to active members because they will get a real understanding of what to expect and what life in the military is actually like.

IH: How much of the graduating classes in recent years have gone into the military?

MD: 2015- 2 [students]

2014- 5 [students]

2013- 7 [students]

2012- 6 [students]

IH: What other ways are there for students to get into contact with active military members if they’ve missed military week or if they want to get more information?

MD: If students did not have the opportunity to speak to a member of the military during Military Week, each branch of the military will be represented during our Career Fair on Wednesday, April 27 in the new gymnasium.  There are also recruiting offices locally for each branch of the military that can provide information and answer any questions.
