If a Cadet tests positive for drugs after returning from Home Pass, he/she will be dismissed from Academy. Parent/guardian may take Cadet off campus for a confirmatory blood test at the expense of the Cadet or parent/guardian.

If a Cadet returns from Home Pass and Medical Staff deems Cadet contagious, parent/guardian will be responsible to transport Cadet to hospital to have Cadet checked by a Doctor and bring medical clearance back to our Medical Staff.

*************************

Though not recommended, below is flight information. Instead of your child sitting on a plane and in airports for hours, they could be having long, meaningful, undistracted conversations with you during the trip home and back to the Academy. Even carpooling with other parents would encourage conversation, and we want the youth to have the opportunity to share what they are learning, with people who care about them.

Per Commandant, the flights below are the only ones that we will facilitate for Class 26-1 Home Pass.
