North Shore Senior High

Air Force JROTC TX-945

Thank you for considering Air Force Junior ROTC (AFJROTC) for your loved one. AFJROTC is an incredible program and our mission is “To develop citizens of character dedicated to serving their nation and community.” Our program is completely voluntary and no student can be forced to take AFJROTC but the support and encouragement you give your student to “try” the program is incredibly important. There are a few important points we want to ensure are very clear to our families.

1. If a student takes AFJROTC in high school, there is never any obligation to join the military.
2. AFJROTC emphasizes “life skills” which will help students long after high school.
3. AFJROTC will help prepare your student for success following high school.

It’s important to know all JROTC programs are citizenship programs. They are not military recruiting programs and the citizenship charter is stated in Title 10 United States Code law. AFJROTC works to teach important skills and reinforce personal traits to help make your student successful in life, no matter what type of career they choose following high school.
