Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC)

The Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps program prepares high school students for responsible leadership roles while making them aware of their rights, responsibilities, and privileges as citizens. The program is a stimulus for promoting graduation from high school and provides instruction and rewarding opportunities which will benefit the students, community, and nation. It also develops skills in team building and problem-solving.

This program complements the other academic clusters by enhancing student confidence and social skills. Leadership skills are practiced in the program’s leadership lab setting for successful integration and application in all endeavors of academic study.
