The SLDC Creed
I am an SLDC Cadet. I am the future of my
school, community, and the United States.
My duty is to bring credit to myself, my
family, and my country. My job is to learn.
I am loyal and patriotic. I will always
practice good citizenship.
I do not lie, cheat or steal and will always be
accountable for my actions.
I am a role model and will always remember
that others watch my actions as an SLDC
Cadet. I set the standards.
I will seek the responsibilities of leadership
and vow to improve my mind and body.
May I have the strength to always live by this
creed
