The Business of Flight

When it came time to choose a university, I felt like I was being pulled in every direction. Deciding to come to Embry-Riddle was the best decision I have made. Now, I am not only pursuing a Bachelor degree in Business Administration, but also, an MBA at the same time. Embry-Riddle has provided me with the resources and opportunities to succeed and get involved.

International ClubOn March 12th the international club raised money from selling quesadillas, croissants donated by Mon Delice bakery and test drivers at the Mullinax Ford Drive One for your School event. The International club was able to raise enough money during the Ford Drive One for your school event to buy 50 backpacks for Project Gaitu, Kenya which is led by Dr. Joyce Nki, a professor at Bethune Cookman University.

The club ended the year with an international potluck on May 18th and is looking forward to another great year.

New Vocational Dual Enrollment Options For School Year 2016-2017

News from the Sea Cadets On Memorial Day, the Sea Cadets here at New Smyrna Beach High School participated in a ceremony at the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse honoring our veterans who have died for this country. It was a humbling experience and one we hope to continue. We are very thankful for each veteran who fought and died for our freedom and democracy. Please consider joining the Sea Cadets here at New Smyrna Beach High School. If you have any questions, you can contact Lt. Welch at SDWelch1226@gmail.com . The process for becoming a Sea Cadet begins with the Daytona Division of Sea Cadets. They provide uniforms and training. We hope everyone has a great summer and if you see a veteran please thank him/her for their service. The Sea Cadets is a charted youth organization developed by the Navy to give youth an opportunity to become better American citizens and have them gain a better understanding of what our military does. During the summer and winter time we have to leave our families to go to trainings to advance through the ranks and train with active duty personnel. The Sea Cadets can train with SEALS (Sea, Air and Land), EOD (Explosive Ordinance Disposal), and SWCC (Special Warfare Combatant Craft Crewman), for example. Many things we do is a once in a lifetime opportunity and you can travel around the United States and possibly the world if you’re selected for international exchange. You would not regret it if you joined this program as you make friends for life and form a brotherhood for life.
