| "The effects of the Marine
Corps JROTC program reach far beyond the classroom and into
the community in developing character, leadership, and civic
responsibility in tens of thousands of America's kids. Marine
Corps JROTC at its essence is a character education program.
The program keeps kids in school, helps them find their
way during the turbulent teenage years, and assists them
in becoming productive members of their community. Our program
produces young men and women who are ready to accept the
responsibilities as well as the privileges of citizenship.
We are rightfully proud of our contribution to America's
future and thankful for the dedicated instructors, staff,
school administrators, and communities whose hard work and
commitment make the program's success possible. " |
Benefits of Marine Corps JROTC Program
Since its inception in 1916, the JROTC program
has been viewed as a strong program that provides youth with
much-needed skills in citizenship and leadership. Additionally,
numerous studies have shown that students who participate in
JROTC programs have better attendance, grades, and graduation
rates relative to students who were in general academic programs.
Principals and school administrators also maintain positive
attitudes toward JROTC because these programs:
• Motivate students to
learn.
• Foster a disciplined and
constructive learning environment.
• Instill essential skills
like time organization, responsibility, goal setting, and
teamwork.
