AFJROTC Fundamentals
Goals and Objectives
The goal of the AFJROTC program is to instill in high school cadets the values of citizenship, service to the United States, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment. We do this by educating and training high school cadets in citizenship; promoting community service; instilling responsibility, character, and self-discipline; and providing instruction in the fundamentals of air and space science.
Eligibility
The AFJROTC program is offered to ALL D11 high school students (9-12 grade).
