junior ROTC
High school cadets
Junior ROTC is a military education program for high school students, preparing them for potential service or leadership roles.
Unlike college-level ROTC, it doesn't create military obligations—participants learn discipline, citizenship, and basic military knowledge without committing to enlist.
Often abbreviated JROTC: He joined junior ROTC as a freshman.
