Good afternoon,

Senator Bill Cassidy and the Louisiana Congressional Delegation will be hosting Virtual Service Academy Day on Saturday, September 25, 2021. Virtual Service Academy Day will be held via an online, video conference service. For those who are affected by Hurricane Ida and don’t have Internet by that time, there will also be a call-in option for the event. All other Service Academy Day events this year have been canceled, due to Ida and Covid-19. Additionally, the event will be taped for later viewing.

Virtual Service Academy Day will feature presentations from America’s Service Academies and University ROTC programs for those interested in learning more about them. Additionally, there will be a presentation on the Congressional nominations process, for students to find out how to become eligible for admittance to a Service Academy.

Please share the attached flyer with your students and encourage them to RSVP if they are interested in attending. They should email me or one of the other Congressional Service Academy Coordinators listed on the flyer with their name and email address. Parents and school counselors are also welcome to attend, and the event is free. More information on how to login to the event will be provided to those who RSVP as we get close to the event.

We hope you share this information with your students! Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks and have a great week!
