Junior Reserve Officer's Training Corps

Mission
The program's focus is reflected in its mission statement "To Motivate Young People to be Better Citizens." It prepares high school students for responsible leadership roles while making them aware of their rights, responsibilities, and privileges as American citizens. The program is a stimulus for promoting graduation from high school, and it provides instruction and rewarding opportunities that will benefit the student, community, and nation.
Vision
This program’s design focuses on the development of better citizens by building skills in leadership, personal growth and behaviors, citizenship, decision making, health and fitness, first aid, team building, service-learning, and, geography; all within a student-centered learning environment. The JROTC program is a cooperative effort between the Army and the host school.
 
JROTC 
Is not an Army recruiting program.  It is an Army-funded program but, recruiting is not the purpose. Its purpose is to help high school students do their personal best as scholars, athletes, and leaders.
