WHATEVER A STUDENT'S "NEXT STEP PLAN" IS..... COLLEGE, JOB, VOCATIONAL/TRADE SCHOOL OR THE MILITARY.....OUR JROTC INSTRUCTORS WILL BE THERE TO GUIDE, MENTOR, SUPPORT AND ASSIST EACH AND EVERY STUDENT.

Core Abilities

Core Abilities describe the broad, life-long skills that every Cadet needs for success in future life and career endeavors. The core abilities are a result of the goals and values that drive the JROTC program and are built upon the program’s four years through integrating various lesson competencies and skills throughout the JROTC curriculum. The Core Abilities are:

Apply critical thinking techniques
Build your capacity for life-long learning
Communicate using verbal, non-verbal, visual, and written techniques
Do your share as a good citizen in your school, community, country, and the world
Take responsibility for your actions and choices
Treat self and others with respect

Program Outcomes

Program outcomes describe what JROTC Cadets will know and be able to do upon successful completion of the JROTC program. These outcomes also provide documentation for growth and development of the student and program for re-accreditation purposes, school visitors, parents, and the community. As Cadets complete each LET, their journey toward program outcomes will occur; each program outcome is linked to every LET lesson in the curriculum. Evidence of learning can be witnessed through a Cadet’s Portfolio, which will showcase continued development of program outcomes. The JROTC Program Outcomes are:

Act with integrity and personal accountability as you lead others to succeed in a diverse and global workforce
Engage in civic and social concerns in the community, government, and society
Graduate prepared to succeed in post-secondary options and career pathways
Make decisions that promote positive social, emotional, and physical health
Value the role of the military and other service organizations

Course Competencies

Competencies describe discipline-specific measurable and observable skills, knowledge, and attitudes. They are targeted in each lesson of the curriculum. Performance standards (criteria and conditions) provide the specifications for assessing mastery of a competency. Cadets show they have learned competencies by applying them in the completion of assessment tasks that require them to do one or more of the following:

Make a decision
Perform a skill
Perform a service
Solve a problem
Create a product
