Malachi Ervin, foreground, and Tarvaress Williams, both cadets at the Maryland National Guard’s Freestate ChalleNGe Academy, fill a bucket with hot water while stripping and waxing the floors in the academy’s barracks building, Nov. 17, 2015. Those at the academy learn not only academic skills in preparation for earning either their GED certificate or high school diploma, but also life skills as well. Rather than simply assigning housekeeping duties to cadets, at the Freestate Academy cadets must formally apply and interview with academy staff as a way to prepare them for job interviews.
