JROTC is designed to prepare high school students/cadets for responsible leadership roles in society while making you aware of your rights, responsibilities and privileges as American citizens. The program has proven to stimulate students to excel in high school and in life after graduation. Students with positive attitudes and who want to be leaders will gain the most from this learning experience. 

PARTICIPATING IN JROTC DOES NOT REQUIRE MILITARY SERVICE

We are not Drill Sergeants.

We are not Recruiters, we work for the school district.

This is an elective class, and 2 years of JROTC provides your PE credit necessary for graduation.

The lessons are designed to provide the maximum growth opportunity for each cadet. Cadets receive military style training and discipline fostering obedience and teamwork. Training is organized into four levels designated as Leadership Education and Training (LET) Levels I, II, III, and IV. Each succeeding year introduces increasing leadership and staff opportunities. 

We sponsor extra-curricular teams that compete statewide against other JROTC programs. These teams are the Armed and Unarmed Drill Teams, Color Guard, JLAB, Rifle Team, and Adventure Team. Achievement on any of these teams offers superb activities that will provide you additional skills and can lead to a Varsity Letter from your respective high school. Deserving teams may qualify to compete out-of-state to Brigade, Army Championships or National Championships.
