About US

NJROTC is a completely student run Unit at Harrisburg High.  Our structure is much like any other Unit in the US Navy complete with a Commanding Officer, Executive Officer, Command Master Chief, Operations Officer, Administrative Officer and many others.  The goal is to instill a sense of community and leadership.  Each field trip, event, and even teaching drill to younger cadets is created and organized by the responsible cadets in that Platoon.  Every cadet is heard and guided appropriately to the best solution by the Naval Science instructors.
