Welcome to Lake View High School Air Force JROTC!
Welcome to the United States Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) at Lake View High School, home of the Maidens and Chiefs! Our program is based on the Air Force Core Values of Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence In All We Do. We offer students opportunities to develop their character through discipline, leadership, life skills, physical fitness, team building, and community service. JROTC exposes cadets to leadership experiences that can be found in no other activity in high school. Cadets will earn high school elective credit and learn life skills they can use long after they graduate.
The JROTC program is run for the cadets, by the cadets. They occupy leadership positions within the Cadet Corps and are responsible for day-to-day management of the Corps. The cadets are challenged to follow and lead, but they incur NO military obligations in this program. JROTC’s primary mission is to "develop citizens of character dedicated to serving their nation and community". The JROTC program has no recruiting goals or ties to the Air Force Recruiting Service.
The minimum commitment is to enroll in the JROTC academic class, and participate in essentially five co-curricular, graded events during the school year (parades, awards ceremonies, and Military Ball). Students must be physically able to participate fully in the physical education program and maintain acceptable standards of conduct. We encourage each cadet to participate in at least one extra-curricular team, and volunteer in offered community service activities to obtain the full benefit of the JROTC program.
This website is designed to provide cadets, parents/guardians, and students considering becoming cadets information on our program. You are encouraged to view this site to gain an understanding of what is expected of the cadets and what the cadets can expect from this program.
