Does anyone know if any pictures of Drill Instructor Training have been posted. I have been missing my son and would love to see pictures.

Dinner Friday Allowed? Great suggestions for Saturday. But does anyone know if 3/c, 2/c and 1/c are allowed to leave for dinner on Friday night? I know Plebes can't but parents were able to have dinner last year on campus. Trying to plan our Friday to see our D/S.

Hardest thing for my DS was the no phone, no computer, no access to his life as he knew it. But it's all part of making them into a Kings Pointer. Just remember that as you're going through it it's really tough but when you get through it (and you will) you will feel very good about yourself...

My family and I stayed at the Marriott Hotel in Uniondale for acceptance's weekend and we got a good rate because us being associated with Kings Point and a lot of families stayed there. I know you are going for indoc but you might want to call them and see if they are offering a good rate for...

Congratulations to the Class of 2014!!!! I know my DS was so excited!!!

My DS (Plebe) is going to summer school but I thought he said he was only giong to be home for a week at the end of June and had to be back at the academy. So just needed more clarification on the dates as we are trying to possibly plan a family vacation. Also, if he wanted to have a car up...

My hearts go out to all of you. I know that the kids that are at Kings Point are kids that really want to be at Kings Point especially at this stage of the game. I remember telling my son when he was nervous about these last finals to calm down and just do the best that you can do and that...

Great question. I wondered the same for my DS. Don't mind paying the extra money for the one on one learning. Very interested in what they have to say.

Yes I am curious as to what that would mean as well. Don't know all my sons grades yet. He's on vacation.

Sunshine Well thank you for setting it up. Punta Cana is beautful and the place they are staying looks wonderful. My son sent us the website. I know they will have a blast.

I think your son must be going on vacation with my son!!! He is also in fifth company.

5 Out of 32 Leaving What will they do if a cadet fails one subject? Do they go to Summer School? And if they fail to but really want to remain are they going to grant set backs? My son struggled this semester in physics but really truly wants to remain a Kings Pointer. He was very upset on...

What is and isn't allowed for an upperclassmen to do to a plebe candidate? Are they allowed to single once person out and curse at them and try to berate them? If this occurs is there someone that the P/C candidate can go to. School is hard enough with the classes do they really need to be...

Visitation Yes thank you RTO for sharing this information. We also live a good distance away and there is nothing more we would want to do than to see our DS but to not be able to talk with him would be near to impossible so I will patiently wait until Parents weekend!! Also would like to...

Thank you for the information. I am just wondering though a couple of things and if you could answer them great. Got my p/c's box number but does there need to be 5th Company someone where on the mailing address or does just the box number suffice. Also, I have ordered a lot of supplies that...

I agree with you. It is important that they start the academic year on a positive note. When I spoke with my son, he also stated that the living conditions were terrible. Regardsless of what the issues are ie: overcrowding, problems with p/c's (rumors or not) these kids should be given an...

Company Changes/Supplies My son was transferred to 5th Company. Why do they do this after Indoc? Also, I have ordered him all his school supplies to be delivered using his old Company address. Will they make sure he receives them? I tried to have them rushed so he would have them by the time...

Phone Call Just wanted to know that after Indoc when and how often are our p/c's allowed to contact us.

Finally got 3 letters all in a row today. Son is in 2nd company ...first couple of days were rough, day 3 sounded more optimistic. He did tell me to keep the mail coming it helps.
