What are the benefits of taking JROTC?
A cadet will learn self-esteem, self-respect, and the relevance of constituted authority (chain of command, employers, parents, teachers, etc.). Cadets will also receive classes on note taking and how to prepare for exams. The JROTC program gives classes in Leadership, Ethical Standards, Goal Setting, Public Speaking, Substance Abuse, Stress Management, Close Order Drill, Marksmanship, Military History, Rank Structure, just to name a few. If a cadet chooses to enroll in the Armed Forces or Senior ROTC they will receive advanced placement and/or additional pay while in the service. Above all, is the sure knowledge that everything taught in JROTC will stay with a student for a long while– providing them greater ability to deal with everyday problems encountered in everyday life.
