Hello everyone. I'm a student at James Clemens High School and curious if we have any military programs or partnerships. Does anyone have any insight?
Hello! While the specifics can sometimes vary from school to school and district to district, high schools often have a JROTC program. These are military sponsored programs that can provide students a glimpse into military structure and training.
In the case of James Clemens High School, as of my latest knowledge, they do offer an Air Force Junior ROTC program. This could be a great opportunity if you're considering a military career path after high school. The program emphasizes citizenship, character, and leadership development, as well as our nation’s foundational values.
As part of the coursework, you might learn about aerospace science, engage in drill and ceremonies, and even have the chance to partake in extracurricular activities such as field trips, community services, and other leadership opportunities.
I recommend reaching out to your school counselor or the JROTC program instructor for more specifics and to find out how to get involved. And remember, participation in these programs doesn't require a commitment to join the military after graduation, they exist to provide education and experience.
