Welcome to
harrisburg High School NJROTC
"WE ARE FAMILY"
NJROTC
is a citizenship development program that instills service to the
United States, personal responsibility and a sense of accomplishment in
students in United States secondary educational institutions. The NJROTC program teaches cadets self-discipline,
self-confidence and leadership skills to help meet life's challenges
and prepare them for life after high school regardless of what career path they
decide to take. Cadets who participate in the program do not have to
serve in the military after high school graduation - it's simply another
elective offered at Harrisburg. However, NJROTC cadets do have a
higher than average graduation rate and a good portion go on to
successful college and career life.
Harrisburg NJROTC is among the Nation's elite programs and we have teams in Marksmanship,
Drill, Athletic and Academic areas. We travel to many northeastern
states including New York, Maryland, DC and New Jersey to compete.
NJROTC
strives to give our cadets a better "world view" to give them more
choices and open as many doors for their future as possible. In support
of that we take frequent trips to museums, bases and other important
educational sites. We have a Navy Ball every year in the Fall to
celebrate the birthday of the Navy and Marine Corps. We take particular
interest in community service events and make a point to do as many in
their own community as possible. Please review the calendar for
opportunities to chaperone.
We
wouldn't be able to do any of these things without your support. In
NJROTC and in school as a whole, parental support of our program, the
teachers and the school is paramount to your child's success. Please
get involved!!!! Even the smallest things can make a huge difference!!!
Please feel free to contact our instructor at the school.
We Look forward to hearing from and seeing you in the near future!!!
