The Air Force Junior ROTC (AFJROTC) Program provides the opportunity for students to study and apply leadership, develop self-reliance and self-discipline, understand basic values and the elements of character, and participate in a wide range of exciting learning environments. Absolutely no military obligation is incurred as a result of enrollment in the program and expenses are paid by the U. S. Government. Students are required to wear the Air Force uniform one day per week and meet the Air Force grooming standards (uniform supplied and tailored free of charge). By completing two or three years of the four- year AFJROTC program, students can compete for a JROTC scholarship to college and may be eligible to enter the military at a higher pay grade.
