What is JROTC?

JROTC stands for Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps. The program was created by the National Defense Act of 1916.

Mission of JROTC

The program's mission is to motivate young people to become better citizens. The JROTC program does NOT enlist teens into military service, nor does it pressure them to join. The program simply is to develop leadership skills.

Extracurricular Activities

JROTC gives cadets the opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities such as Color Guard, Drill, and Raiders. We also host an annual Military Ball in the spring. This gives cadets from all four schools within Mercer County to get together and share their experiences with one another while having a good time.
