Let The CLS Games Begin

From June 6th until the graduation parade on June 13th, Wade Hampton AFJROTC cadets received full exposure to the training environment provided by the Converse College Cadet Leadership School (CLS). From 5:30 am until 10:30 pm, our cadets experienced the very best in teamwork, attention to detail, inspection, evaluation, athletics, academics - and a little fun along the way. For 13 years Converse College CLS has been considered one of the best "summer leadership laboratories" in the US. It is consistently rated as the best in Area 3. After our evaluation by the Air Force this summer, our Area Administrator put these comments in his report "Converse SLS* has THE BEST training and evaluation program I have seen. The school provides a wonderful training environment". Wade Hampton High School is proud to be the host for this awesome leadership school.

* Note: SLS stands for Summer Leadership School in Air Force lingo. Some leadership schools (Citadel, Newberry, etc.) call their programs Cadet Officer Leadership School (COLS), but ours is termed CLS (Cadet Leadership School) since units attending Converse do not promote all graduates to cadet officer rank. So now you know.
