Army ROTC
The ARMY JROTC Mission
JROTC -- This program prepares high school students for leadership roles
while making them aware of their rights, responsibilities, and privileges
as American citizens. It is a stimuli for promoting graduation from high
school and it provides instruction and rewarding opportunities which will
benefit the student, community, and nation.
|
| LET I -- The mission of Leadership Education and Training
(LET) is to motivate first year JROTC cadets to be better citizens.
To accomplish this purpose, the text discusses citizenship, leadership,
and a number of other courses designed to help the cadets succeed
in high school and after graduation. Cadets wear uniforms one time
each week. Extracurricular activities include: Providing color guards,
participating in community parades, drill and rifle teams. |
|
| LET II -- The second year of Leadership Education and Training
provides more details about leadership situations. The program is
split into units including: Techniques of Communication, Leadership,
Cadet Challenge, Leadership Lab, First Aid, Map Reading, History,
Your American Citizenship, Career Opportunities, and Role of the U.S.
Army. The wearing of the uniform and extracurricular activities are
the same as for LET I. |
|
| LET III -- The third year of Leadership Education and Training
provides still more leadership situations. In this year students will
not only be more involved as teacher and leaders within the cadet
battalion, but they will also do more independent studies in the areas
of communication, leader, first aid, history, map reading, career
opportunities, and technology awareness. The wearing of the uniform
and the extracurricular activities are the same as for LET I. |
|
| LET IV --Fourth-year cadets are responsible for the daily
cadet administration and perform as commanders and staff officers.
They act as assistant instructors in some subject areas for other
JROTC classes. They continue to develop their leadership skills and
plan special unit events such as the military ball or the annual awards
banquet. |
