...attending participating schools. In public schools, JROTC is usually an elective course with membership limited to US citizens and legal foreign nationals, those who will graduate with their 9th grade cohort, and have not experienced an out of school suspension during the preceding six-month period. Often, students who participate for one year receive credit in lieu of a physical education class. Students who excel in the first year of JROTC can apply for a second year. Most schools offer three to four years of JROTC training. Boarding schools or (pre-college) military schools may offer JROTC programs, with some requiring participation as a condition for acceptance to the school. Some public military schools mandate JROTC as a class for all grade levels, and have a curriculum that includes military history, military protocol, civics and physical fitness. Chicago has six public military academies, more than any other city and one-third of all in the country. A Marine Corps JROTC unit in Hendersonville, Tennessee. The JROTC program stresses military discipline, with a curriculum that emphasizes study of military science and military history. Cadets typically wear...

...fundamental that we consider our pasts and futures as well - what made us who we are, and how will we continue to improve? The Junior Reserve Officer’s Training Corps (JROTC) has advanced in nearly all of the fields it is involved in since its founding in 1916, and it is simple to see that its development will not end here. Cadets have gone on to become professional athletes, renowned scholars, and celebrated members of the military; one can only imagine what inspiring individuals the program will produce in the future. From roughly 1819 to 1915, military training occurred sparingly in high schools and colleges across the nation; although it lacked sanction, it encouraged many students to pursue careers in the armed forces. President Wilson addressed the issue of this unofficial instruction in 1916, when he signed the National Defense Act. The National Defense Act of 1916 is primarily responsible for the creation of JROTC. At the beginning of its existence, active duty military personnel led the Army JROTC program; their tools to lead instruction consisted of federal military equipment loaned to them. Only six units...

...time devoted to this school has been JROTC, especially rifle team. I just wanted to write this to you to let you know what an influence you’ve made and the JROTC program has made on my life. I think that out of all the students in the program over the years that we were closest. Everything I know and excel in, I learned from you. You taught me how to shoot on the rifle team, which resulted in 1st place in the county last year. You demonstrated leadership and lead by example in order to make me a better leader, which resulted in becoming rifle team commander as well as Battalion Commander. Due to everything you ever taught me, I received the Army ROTC scholarship. This scholarship is going to change my life and make me a much greater success I think. You made it possible for me to make a career out of the military and go to college for Army ROTC with all the lessons you taught me and everything you ever did for me. You made me a better person and I thank you for everything. You are the reason I decided to go into Aviation, so that I could make a promising career in what I love and become at least half the man that you are today. Thank you for everything.

...| 2013 | | Donisha BrewerProfessor Stuart English 102 | [Junior rotc] | | Growing up I was never the person to be interested in joining the military. I actually frowned upon the idea. In my junior year of high school I was enrolled in the JROTC program. I didn’t last two week in the program before I had my mother come and withdraw me from the program and enroll me in P.E. At the time I didn’t know what ROTC and the benefits the program had to offer. As I have gotten older I have found out that there are many benefits for the students who are in the JROTC program. There is more than one branch of the JROTC. It has just as many branches as the United States Military. If I had had some prior knowledge on JROTC when I was in high school I may have giving it a chance. Junior ROTC is a part of a federal program that is sponsored by the United States Armed Forces. Junior ROTC is located within High Schools across America. Many students who enroll in the JROTC are more likely to enlist in part of the United States Military. The Reserve Officers Training Corps also known as ROTC began in 1916 on the campus of Yale University. Hundreds of thousands of cadets have trained there since then. Approximately 70,000 ROTC cadets train at over 300 campuses (Wissing 39). The latest branch was opened in 2011 when the secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus joined with Yale President Richard Levin to re-establish the ROTC on its campus. It had been 40 years since the last ROTC class graduated...

...I don’t see a career in the U.S. Army as an obligation but as a privilege. This is a once in a life time opportunity for me to uphold. I am ready to take a leap of faith and embrace my future. Growing up in a family where I was not encourage to make anything great of myself, only made me fight harder to become someone successful. I am a current college student who will be walking the stage of Manor College this May of 2014 with my Associate Degree in Science. But I am not finished yet; starting in the Fall of 2014 I will begin my training for becoming an RN-BSN and fulfilling my dreams. I currently hold an accumulative GPA of a 3.5 while playing 3 sports, which are Rugby, Volleyball, and Softball. As you can see even with a busy schedule I still have the ability to succeed. I was put on this earth to change people’s lives and to share my heart of gold with the world. Joining the Army ROTC Program will not only grant me with an opportunity like no other, but will get me once step closer to achieving my goal of becoming an Army Nurse for this country. I have always put people before myself and will continue to do so, but this opportunity will give me the chance to make a difference and leave imprints in the hearts of those whom I’ve helped. I cannot get this experience anywhere but here. This 4 year scholarship would be an honor and help me become a part of something bigger, but I need your help. As a leader I am already one step ahead of the rest. I have the drive, ambition, brains...
