About Our JROTC Program

JROTC is designed to teach high school students the value of citizenship, leadership, service to the community, personal responsibility, and sense of accomplishment, while instilling in them self-esteem, teamwork, and self-discipline. Our focus is reflected in our mission statement, "To motivate young people to be better citizens." It prepares high school students for responsible leadership roles while making them aware of their rights, responsibilities, and privileges as American citizens. The program is a stepping stone for promoting graduation from high school, and it provides instruction and rewarding opportunities that will benefit the student, community, and nation.
