Mission of The Army JROTC

The mission of the JROTC Department is "To motivate our cadets to be better citizens." The Department teaches a wide range of subjects designed to reinforce other areas of the academic curriculum such as study skills, communications, leadership, management, resume writing/career search techniques and citizenship. In addition, the JROTC program exposes our cadets to some basic life skills which will serve them well upon graduation. These include: problem solving and time management skills, race relations, drug and alcohol abuse prevention, personal fitness through proper diet and exercise, map reading, orienteering, and military drill.

The JROTC Program also provides cadets the opportunity to participate in a variety of competitive activities, such as Drill Teams and Adventure Training. The focus of the program is to develop within our cadets a sense of personal pride in a job well done, team work, self-discipline, and the desire to do the right thing.

Famous quotes containing the words mission of, mission and/or army:

    It is the mission of the twentieth century to elucidate the irrational.
    Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1907–1961)

    I cannot be a materialist—but Oh, how is it possible that a God who speaks to all hearts can let Belgravia go laughing to a vicious luxury, and Whitechapel cursing to a filthy debauchery—such suffering, such dreadful suffering—and shall the short years of Christ’s mission atone for it all?
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Like an army defeated
    The snow hath retreated,
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
