Senior Testimonials:
"The program's curriculum provides knowledge on how to become a better citizen as well as teach you leadership styles and how to work in a team. In my opinion it is the best class to learn how to maneuver in the real world when holding a job or dealing with situations." Nikolajs Slavin
"This academy was the highlight of high school. The instructors and cadets became like family and we were all taught how to be well mannered citizens." ~ Eden
"Classroom instruction is extremely diverged into a type of teaching style that focuses on communication and espirit de corps, as well as the army values that they've instilled in us. Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage. This academy sets the upmost standard of what a teaching environment should look like, and I believe is undersold in the academies as opposed to it's counterparts. The curriculum circulates around all general areas that promote the motivation of younger people to become better citizens. I.E. we do court cases, have a suicide prevention course, CPR and first aid course, etiquette, diversity, Leadership and citizenship values, decision-making processes, you name it. The leadership, education, and training that is provided through Army JROTC is even more than what you bargained for. Nothing competes to the elite, highest example of standards that is portrayed by our Army Instructors." ~ Jacob
