History and ValuesArmy and Navy Academy, located along the shores in Carlsbad, California, is a college

preparatory, military-style boarding school for young men in Grades 7 through 12. !e Academy was founded with 13 students in Pacific Beach, November 23, 1910 and relocated 35 miles north of San Diego and 80 miles south of Los Angeles to the village of Carlsbad in 1936. Unlike most traditional military boarding schools, the Academy consists of 29 buildings on 16.5 acres adjacent the Pacific Ocean allowing students beachfront access for water sports, in addition to traditional sports such as football, baseball, basketball, hockey and cross country.

Army Navy has a rich tradition in promoting character, leadership, and scholarship.!e Academy is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, National Association of Independent Schools as well as the California Association of Independent Schools. Core values instilled in Army Navy graduates include leadership, excellence, honor, responsibility, loyalty and compassion.

!e Academy promotes discipline and leadership through character development lessons. !is is provided through our Leadership Education Training (LET) classes which includes the US Army’s Junior Reserve O"cer Training Corps ( JROTC) program. !ese lessons extend outside of our classrooms and into other aspects of young men’s lives. A cadet’s experience in athletics, clubs, and residential life reinforces teamwork, lasting friendships, and ongoing personal growth.

Greetings from Army and Navy Academy!We have the distinct pleasure of announcing the celebration of Army and Navy Academy’s Centennial year. Founded in 1910, the Academy has served thousands of young men who have gone on to lead successful and purposeful lives representing virtually every profession imaginable. As important, countless alumni return to our beautiful Carlsbad campus in order to convey that their experience as a cadet was their most critical and formative experience in preparing them for college and beyond.

Today, 300 young men in grades 7 to 12 from around the world walk in their footsteps preserving the rich traditions while embracing a rigorous yet supportive college prep curriculum. Due to the unwavering care and professionalism of our outstanding faculty and sta#, we take great pride in witnessing positive growth in their self-confidence, self-reliance, and directness of purpose as they prepare to lead responsible and productive lives.

As the Academy turns 100, we are reaching out to our friends in the community to tell our story and convey our plans for the future. Recently, the city of Carlsbad approved our campus wide master plan which involves significant renovation of our existing facilities as well as a number of new structures including academic buildings, dormitories, and athletic facilities. We intend to preserve our beautiful Spanish Mission architecture while at the same time create a world class campus that will further help our faculty and sta# deliver the very best educational experience possible for our cadets.

Excellence in Academics

“!e Army Navy Experience” Over 6,000 boys have crossed the threshold of the Academy on their way towards becoming young men of good character and acquiring the knowledge and skills to lead successful lives, be contributing citizens, and be responsible leaders in their communities. !ey are all products of “!e Army Navy Experience” - a 100 year “new” tradition built on excellence in Academics, Athletics and Leadership.

Cadet Learning Expectations)e Army and Navy Academy cadet will . . .

Small classrooms, personal attention and discipline to one’s studies motivate each cadet to reach his potential. Since its inception in 1910, Army and Navy Academy has sought to develop scholarship and honorable character in young men. In order to achieve these ends, it is essential that the academic curriculum be appropriately demanding and stress the attributes of good citizenship. !e rigorous core curriculum, based on the University of California’s entrance requirements, is taught through a carefully developed learning system. Our program o#ers a college preparatory curriculum including over 10 AP courses, as well as a multitude of honors classes. Classes and exposure to visual arts, drama, and music allows each cadet to explore and express his creative side. Recognizing that each cadet learns

di#erently, on average the student-to-teacher ratio of 10:1 allows for customized strategies and tutoring.

Last year, 100% of the Class of 2009 was accepted to one or more colleges or universities. Included in these schools were: MIT, Rutgers, Penn State, University of California (Los Angeles, Davis, Irvine, Santa Cruz); USC, USD, NYU, !e Citadel, Pepperdine and many other fine educational institutions.

A large portion of the credit for the successes of our graduates goes to dedicated faculty and sta#. At Army Navy, the Academic Experience extends beyond the classroom. Teachers are committed to educating the “whole” child and recognize that the job does not always end at 3:00 p.m. Teachers are readily available for tutorial immediately

What makes for excellence in Academics?

after classes end as well as in the evening hours during study hall. Our teachers and sta# serve as role models and mentors, getting to know cadets on a personal level. !ey are willing to spend extra time when a cadet is struggling and

participate in a wide variety of clubs and sports in order to interact with the cadets on many levels. !e Academy provides on-going training and in-services to keep the faculty current in teaching methods and subject matter.

• Develop intellectual curiosity, creativity, and independent thought through a rigorous academic core that prepares each cadet for the challenges of a post-secondary education.

• Become an information-literate student who can gather, evaluate, and analyze facts in order to draw meaningful and valid conclusions in an ethical manner.

• Demonstrate an understanding of civic responsibilities and a commitment to service.

• Relate successfully to others, accept responsibility, demonstrate empathy, and adapt to change as he faces the problems that confront him now and in the future.

• Develop mature habits and skills that promote life-long good emotional health.• Develop an appreciation for cultural diversity in our modern world.

Excellence in Academics boils down to: passionate teachers, challenging college-prep curricula, motivating and structured learning environments and positive role models. Excellence in Academics is an essential building block of “!e Army Navy Experience.”

Excellence in AthleticsWhat makes for Excellence in Athletics?

Is excellence in Athletics all about winning? Even with seven CIF championships and 75 league titles at Army Navy, winning isn’t just about the final score. Cadets also win when they work as a team; sacrificing individual needs for a common goal and

showing resilience by picking themselves up, practicing and trying again. !ese are the scores that really matter when we move from the playing field to the field of life. Over 85% of our cadets participate in some competitive athletics program. We encourage everyone to get into the game – both on and o# the field.

Interscholastic sports have been a vital component in “!e Army Navy Experience” since the day the school was founded nearly 100 years ago.

Army Navy sports teams are known as the Warriors, and there are 11 varsity sports. We are members of the Coastal League in all sports with the exception of football where we belong to the Pacific League, and we are also a part of the CIF San Diego Section. Additionally, !e Academy also sponsors several club teams managed by the Associated Student Body.

At the Academy I learned a lot about responsibility, organization, discipline and leadership. ANA teaches more than just the basics of education and leadership, it has allowed me to experience the fundamental skills of life.

Excellence in LeadershipWhat makes for Excellence in Leadership?

Looking Ahead to the Next 100 Years

Athletics continued from the preceding page

On the field, in the classroom, and in the dorm, virtually 24/7, cadets are constantly urged to assume increasingly responsible leadership roles at a pace that reflects their own capabilities. Like in “the real world”, especially the world

of work, cadets at the Academy learn that leadership responsibility is earned based on knowledge, skills, and abilities and not something automatically granted because of age, size or physical strength. !e Corps of Cadets is organized as a battalion, a typical military structure with promotions based on academic achievement, conduct, proven leadership abilities, dependability, sportsmanship, and adherence to the Academy’s values.

Cadets learn character and responsibility through leading others. !e cadet leaders, because they are in direct control of other cadets, have a unique opportunity to be responsible. !eir actions a#ect not only themselves but also other people in their close-knit community. !ey can be a positive, constructive influence in the development of a younger cadet. Many of them have had an older cadet mentor them, helping them get through, so they are willing to do the same and understand the value. When the cadets are given this power and responsibility (appropriately monitored), they usually flourish into diligent leaders. Along the way, they learn to be counselors and mediators, motivators, critics and encouragers. !e military structure is well suited for this, giving the cadets more and more responsibility as they move higher and higher up, gaining respect and earning rewards as they go.

!e levels of leadership involve specific training that is provided during the academic day in the Leadership Education Training class (LET period). !e LET program currently includes the US Army’s JROTC program ( Junior Reserve O"cer Training Corps), first-aid and CPR training, time management, aspects of team building and leadership training used in the corporate world, and a character development program designed by the Academy administration. !ough less than 1% of Army and Navy graduates enter military service, 100% of our cadets continue their personal journey after Army Navy, prepared for future leadership roles complimented by a strong sense of independence, responsibility and moral and ethical values.

We’ve all heard the notion that some leaders are born, others are made. At the Academy, all leaders are made from the young man who has the innate charisma to lead but may need support in making better decisions to the deliberate and thoughtful young man, who must also find his voice in leading others. We work with each cadet to instill in them the necessary characteristics toward becoming e#ective leaders. Leadership is perhaps the most important leg in “!e Army Navy Experience.”

Thank you for taking the time to familiarize yourself with the rich legacy of the Army and Navy Academy. We are extraordinarily proud of our service in educating thousands of young men to understand the reach of their potential and to pursue

their dreams accordingly. As we continue celebrating our Centennial, we are also looking ahead to the next 100 years with great anticipation. With a growing network of active alumni, a visionary Board of Trustees, grateful families, dedicated faculty and sta# and a renewed engagement with foundations, businesses and individuals from our local and

regional community, we are eagerly planning the launch of a multi-million dollar capital campaign focused on bringing the drawings and ideas expressed in our recently approved Master Plan to fruition. All the while, Army Navy remains steadfast in our commitment to our core values of Leadership, Excellence, Honor, Responsibility, Loyalty and Compassion and our ultimate purpose in educating and developing young men of good character.

We invite you to take a personal tour of our 16-acre beachfront campus and to witness the extraordinary educational journey we call “!e Army Navy Experience.”

“I sent you a gentle, kind, caring, intelligent, disorganized child who repeatedly had been diagnosed with various “learning disabilities de jour.” At Thanksgiving vacation, you sent me back a self-confident, happy and proud young man literally marching into adulthood, maturity and leadership. Cameron always has dreamed of attending Annapolis. As much as he has been the child of my heart, until now it has been difficult to encourage him without having reservations about his ability to achieve his dreams. How can I thank you for helping him find the way? - Patricia Kyle Carlson

Mother of Cadet Cameron Carlson Class of 2004

One could say that putting my appreciation for this Academy in words would be near impossible. The respect and love I feel for you is beyond mere words on paper . . . Thank you, mother and father, for allowing me the opportunity to build a strong foundation for my future.
