To motivate and develop young people is the goal of Junior ROTC. To accomplish this goal, JROTC combines hands-on classroom instruction and exciting extracurricular activities oriented on attaining an awareness of the rights, responsibilities, and privileges of citizenship, developing the student's life skills, and providing abundant leadership opportunities. First aid, physical fitness, drug abuse prevention, public speaking, map reading, geography, career opportunities, history, and technology awareness are all part of the JROTC curriculum!

 

Cadets are organized into units along military lines and are taught by retired military personnel. Junior ROTC does not recruit students for military service. Instead, its focus is on developing young people and orienting them positively in preparation for whatever role in life they might choose. It is this sense that Junior ROTC is part of the Army's service to the nation.
