JROTC - Motivating Young People to be Better Citizens
JROTC can improve performance not only in high school but also in college or the
future workplace. When a college or employer accepts a JROTC cadet, they know they're
getting a good citizen with strong motivation who's willing to work hard.
JROTC instructors are committed to guiding youth. They follow a high personal standard
and teach by example. The program is an apprenticeship where the instructor is a
positive role model for young people today who are seeking direction, guidance,
values and a purpose for their lives. Cadets develop inner strengths like integrity,
dependability and self-discipline. They leave the program with confidence; respect
for others and themselves; and with an assuredness about who they are, patterned
after the strength and decency of their instructors.
