Our Philosophy

We believe that learning is a life-long process of growth and development. The process includes both physical and mental activities. As such, we believe that school should provide a variety of experiences aimed to develop responsible, intelligent, self-directed cadets who can function as effective citizens. In life, our cadets will be required to both lead by example and follow with integrity. In concentrating on military leadership strategies, we believe that each cadet will understand what it takes to be an effective leader and team member. Ultimately, we believe if we promote learning in all areas, our cadets will have the foundation for future success and be able to participate fully in life’s great adventure!

Our Vision

We exist to ensure that all cadets value and demonstrate leadership, character, citizenship, physical development and academic excellence. 

Our Mission

To add value to every cadet in a supportive environment that promotes academic excellence, in a standards-based instructional setting that inspires leadership and strengthens physical, mental, social and emotional well-being.

Our Creed

As cadets of Joseph Stilwell Military Academy of Leadership, we commit to excellence by serving with respect, learning with passion, and leading with honor and integrity.
