By Patti Danner

Bloomfield High School's NJROTC Unit held their end-of-year awards ceremony on Saturday, May 4, 2019. This year marked 25 successful years at Bloomfield. The joyous event was tinged with sadness as cadets, parents, guests and school administration bid fond farewell to Senior Naval Science Instructor Commander Mike Cluver and his wife Paula. The couple is relocating to New Albany, where Cluver will lead the NJROTC Unit at New Albany High School.
