James Clemens High School

You are the future of the United States of America. Don't you want to learn how to be a better citizen? JROTC can help with that! JROTC is an extraordinary program if you’re looking to become a notable leader, make new friends, challenge yourself, and build work experience. A common misconception about JROTC is that it is a recruitment tool or a contract to join the military. That is far from the truth!

JROTC focuses on cadets’ education, ensuring that the senior cadets have a well-thought-out plan for what they want to do after they graduate high school, whether that is joining the military, the workforce, or going to college. JROTC also makes sure that the cadets are not failing their classes, and if a cadet is struggling to get a passing grade in their classes, our AI and SAI work with the cadets to help them create a plan to get their grades up. JROTC helps those looking to go to college with a ROTC scholarship. 

The opportunities provided when joining JROTC. JROTC helps students get out of their comfort zone, especially when it comes to public speaking, and communicating with other cadets as a team and as a leader. JROTC helps a lot with resumes, because with JROTC, there are countless opportunities to help volunteer both in and outside of school, with the leadership opportunities that cadets can achieve, and awards that cadets can receive in recognition of their time and dedication. These are just a few things that can help make resumes more appealing to businesses.

Many cadets love JROTC, and it has helped them overcome their fears and has evolved them into phenomenal leaders. JROTC accepts everyone with open arms and does not judge, discriminate, or hate, and there is truly a place for everyone within JROTC. Overall, JROTC is always looking for new faces to come through the door and would love to provide the many benefits and opportunities it provides within the battalion.
