**THE JROTC MISSION**

To Motivate Young People To Be Better Citizens

Junior ROTC: Hollywood High School's JROTC program, which has

over 300 cadets, was started in 1917, making it one of the oldest

in the United States. JROTC is not a recruitment program for the

military. JROTC is a course given during regular school hours but

it includes many out-of-classroom activities. The curriculum covers

basics in history, government, technology awareness, citizenship,

and current events. Cadets also learn leadership skills,

self-discipline, confidence, and responsibility. JROTC sponsors

many activities for the cadets, to include a color guard,

drill teams, and a rifle team, and the program supports many

activities which benefit both school and community.

The JROTC program - which can be taken for up to four years for

credit - is the single most comprehensive course in high school.

It teaches a broad spectrum of subjects such as American history,

US government , US Constitution, technology awarenness, and

current events. Most students get involved in extracurricular

activities like Drill Team, Color Guard, and Land Navigation.

Many enjoy a stay at Summer Camp, where they play team sports,

train in confidence courses, and learn useful skills. Perhaps the

most unusual part of the JROTC program is the broad range of

instruction. Students are trained in personal skills that help

them study effectively, test well, develop winning habits,overcome

fears of failure, and set goals for themselves. They are also

trained in leadership skills that help them motivate others, make

decisions, plan and organize, speak and write effectively,work as

a member of a team, and problem solve.

The results are higher levels of success for grades and

graduation. When they enter college or the working world, they

have a distinct advantage over other applicants. Employers know

they are getting a person with strong motivation. Colleges know

they are getting a good citizen who's eager to work hard.
