You can join JROTC.
in high school(jrotc) btw j stands for junior...or even in a r.o.t.c college and go for at least 2-4 years before you go to the forces
there are many schools throughout the country that offer JROTC. If they don't offer it at your school, you should change schools. I go to Lane Tech high school in chicago, illinois. It's amazing. I would'nt change it for the world.
No. "ROTC in high school" is JROTC. If you complete enough JROTC you can enlist as E2 or something. That's the only advantage of JROTC. For Army ROTC you must attend and receive a degree from a 4-year university.
Yes, there is a JROTC program at Conway Public Schools in Conway, Arkansas. The program is available to high school students who are interested in military training and leadership development. Contact the school district or the specific high school for more information on how to join the program.
To join the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) in high school, students typically need to be at least 14 years old, as most programs are open to students in grades 9 through 12. However, specific age requirements may vary slightly depending on the school's program and the branch of the military associated with it. It's best to check with the local JROTC program for any specific guidelines.
The high School JROTC class prepares students to join the military or at least give them an idea of what the military is all about. It instills discipline, leadership and responsibility, It will also n=make the cadets better people in general.
I think you are confused. JROTC is a high school course. So, no, you don't need a diploma to join. Maybe you are refering to college ROTC. If so, if you get into college, you can join ROTC. The J in JROTC means junior, by the way.
JROTC was invented for high school students to see if there would be a better motivation to join the military, and if the students would want to further into the rotc in college to become officers.
Yes,
If you live near a high school that has a JROTC program, you can talk to both principals, your parents, and/or whoever else need be involved, you can technically attend the other school's JROTC program. You will most likely have to provide transportation, though. It is different with every school district. I know for a fact that a small, determined group of students can get a program started at their through petitioning. As long as your school meets the population requirement. Look into it. All the JROTC's websites are informative. If after this you still cannot join JROTC, you should start looking at other programs such as CAP (Civil Air Patrol), BSA (Boy Scouts of America), Girl Scouts, Young Marines, U.S Naval Sea Cadet Corps, U.S Army Cadet Corps or Sea Scouts (a BSA activity).
JROTC is to teach leadership within a high school through a military curriculum. This program teaches you to be accountable for your actions, or your lack of actions. Not only does JROTC help you be a better citizen, but also if you are in JROTC for the 4 years of your high School career if you join the military you may become E-3. The JROTC Objectives are as follows: 1. Develop informed and responsible citizens. 2. Develop leadership skills. 3. Strengthen character. 4. Promote an understanding of the basic elements and requirements for national security. 5. Help form habits of self-discipline. 6. Develop respect for, and an understanding of, the need for a constituted authority in a democratic society.
