About The JROTC Program
About The JROTC Program
JROTC is a program which teaches cadets the expectations and realities of being a productive member of society, through the use of military bearings and customs. JROTC promotes the health and fitness of its cadets through P.T. and both physical and mental training. JROTC helps cadets to understand the financial and social benefits of education whether it be high school or college. JROTC also prepares cadets for the working world through extensive teachings about stable communication, teamwork roles, career development, and the qualifications of a leader. They teach cadets the military's customs and traditions and how those concepts intertwine with the working world as a whole. They also teach mental prowess through stress management and conflict resolution. JROTC teaches cadets how to be better citizens.
The JROTC program is a cooperative effort between the United States Army and CRHS, designed to provide students with the tools that they need to be better citizens and positively contribute to their workplace and communities. JROTC is a college and/or career preparation program, and there is no military obligation associated with it. JROTC is not a military preparation program and the instructors are in no way Army Recruiters. 95% of JROTC Cadets go directly into college.
The course is scheduled for one semester. Credit for this course counts towards the Physical Education credits required for high school graduation. The program is a series of four classes designed to develop students in preparation for college, trade school, the military, or a career.
Students will learn to:
Develop an understanding of the ethical principles that underlie good citizenship.
Develop an understanding of the importance of discipline and respect.
Develop intermediate leadership skills.
Develop the ability to communicate orally and in writing.
Develop an understanding and appreciation of health principles and the importance of physical training and maintaining health.
Develop the ability to live and work cooperatively with others.
Develop the ability to think quickly and communicate ideas.
Develop self-confidence and self-reliance.
Develop and implement a post-graduation plan.
College Preparation:
Each cadet prepares and maintains a Cadet Portfolio consisting of their life goals, résumé, and college or career path, along with ideas for how to make that path a reality. Beyond leadership theory, each cadet is given multiple opportunities to apply their leadership skills and talents when placed in a position of responsibility within the Battalion Chain of Command
About Drill and Ceremony
About Drill and Ceremony
Drill is a set of movements and procedures meant to show a group's command comprehension, precise movements, and overall understanding of their fellow teammates. Cadets are provided detailed instruction on ceremonial performances and protocol for civilian and military events. Cadets have the opportunity to personally learn Army drill concepts and procedures. Drill is about a groups timing, precision, and confidence. Drill is something taught to every cadet within the program, but for cadets who wish to take their drill abilities to the next level, there is a competing team dedicated purely to drill. Cadets on this team will learn determination, discipline, confidence, and gain a better control over their bodies as a whole.
We want to make sure all the cadets in our program feel accepted and together as one whole team. Drill is good for cadets who like to work together as a team, and help each other out. Our dynamics at drill are always friendly and welcoming and we all work together to give our input on how we can better our team for future competitions and events. Our competitions are always exciting. They consist of many different drill aspects like proper performance, knockout games, team bonding, and so much more. Drill is always under continuous improvement as are we and it can help structure us and give us confidence in ourselves and all our aspects of life. Drill will help you walk taller, prouder, in the halls. Drill isn’t just for the competition either, it’s mainly about the fun, and the enjoyment of the cadets. As long as they have smiles on their faces at the end of a competition or event that’s what truly matters.
Color Guard
Color Guard
Colorguard is a section of drill that uses both American and State flags, along with rifles corresponding to the flags in order to show respect to our soldiers. The colors are presented during the National Anthem, Drill competitions, and other important events. Colorguard is an honor to work in as it shows professionalism and a true respect for one's country.
Armed Drill
Armed Drill
Armed Drill implements the use of Springfield Replicas into normal drills. The use of rifles makes drill harder as you must focus both on keeping in step with your teammates along with holding your rifle correctly. Armed Drill is for those cadets who excel in their skills and want a further challenge.
