Military Service
Students who are interested in entering a branch of the military services will want to contact one or more of the recruiting officers in order to determine the enlistment program that best meets personal interest. Recruiters come to Tuslaw during the lunch periods several times a year. A variety of programs are available through each branch of military service. Various scholarships and ROTC program information is also available through the various branches of the military. See Mrs. Derheimer for the most current contacts in each branch.
