Honor Unit with Distinction
Page High School's Patriot Battalion
The most popular class on the Page H.S. campus is JROTC.
Nearly 200 students elect to participate in this citizenship
annually. Page JROTC is graded as an Honor Unit with
Distinction Program ranking us as top 5% in the nation.
What Is JROTC?
Junior ROTC is designed to teach high school students
the value of citizenship, leadership, service to the
community, personal responsibility, and a sense of
accomplishment, while instilling in them self-esteem,
teamwork, and self-discipline. Its focus is reflected in its
mission statement, "To motivate young people to be better
citizens." It prepares high school students for
responsible leadership roles while making them aware of
their rights, responsibilities, and privileges as American
citizens. The program is a stimulus for promoting graduation
from high school, and it provides instruction and rewarding
opportunities that will benefit the student, community, and
nation.
What JROTC Isn't
Junior ROTC is not a recruitment tool for the military.
The focus is on developing young people and orienting them
positively in preparation for graduation and whatever role
in life they might choose. Cadets are organized into units
along military lines and are taught by retired military
personnel, but Junior ROTC does not recruit students
for military service.
The ARMY JROTC Mission: To motivate young people to
be better citizens
This program prepares high school students for
leadership roles while making them aware of their rights,
responsibilities, and privileges as American citizens. It is
a stimulus for promoting graduation from high school and it
provides instruction and rewarding opportunities which will
benefit the student, community, and nation.
