Air Force Junior ROTC is a citizenship program for high school students in the ninth through twelfth grades. AFJROTC encourages its students to get involved in their local communities to produce well informed and helpful citizens. Each year’s Aerospace Science course work relates to a different theme, examples are Frontiers in Aviation History, The Science of Flight, and The Exploration of Space. To enhance classroom learning, students participate in extracurricular and social activities such as field trips, drill teams, honor guards, model rocketry, and dining-outs.
