Standard Operating Procedure #01

JROTC Training Model

  1. We are part of the A/B block scheduling plan at NCUHS. This means that you will be assigned to a block, A or B, and have JROTC studies on the day assigned (in essence every other day). Each of our blocks are known as "platoons" (eg: block 2A is 2nd Platoon Company A). Our 2010 schedule is to instruct block 1, 4 and 5A; 1, 2B. Command and Staff meetings will generally be held block 3 on Monday's. Our standard training week consists of:

    • Monday: JROTC Academics, normally classroom work.
    • Tuesday: JROTC Academics, normally classroom work.
    • Wednesday: Leadership Lab, Cadets take charge! UNIFORM DAY (Every other wednesday block 3) Normally drill, leader reaction courses, cadet challenge etc.
    • Thursday: JROTC Academics, normally classroom work.
    • Friday: Physical training, conditioning drills, Health, Fitness, and Wellness.

  2. An NCUHS bus will pick you up for your JROTC block in front of "B" wing and bring you to our classroom located at the National Guard Armory across the street. NCUHS leases the classrooms and use of the drill floor for JROTC. While at the Armory you will respect their property at all times. There are NO authorizations to walk to or from JROTC, and there are NO authorizations to drive to and from JROTC. While at the Armory you must comply with ALL NCUHS school rules as well as, all Federal, US Army, and State Military Department regulations and rules. This includes a right to search all items being brought into the armory and to deny access to the armory.

  3. After school extra curricular activities are planned for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday each week. The generally conclude between 4:00 and 4:30 PM. The participants must be picked up no later than 4:30 at the classroom or they can return to the school to be retrieved there at a later time.

  4. "Cadet Rides" (field trips) are planned several times a year for cadets "in good standing". These include "Operation Freedom Quest: Fall Falcon" week in Washington, D.C., "Operation Freedom Quest: Ocean Adventure" a hands on tour and training of Newport Naval Station at Rhode Island and the discovery of the Freedom Trail in Boston, "Operation Freedom Quest: The Blue and Gray" tour of Gettysburg Battlefield, and " Operation Daring Directions" an end of the year land navigation problem. Each of these "cadet rides" are completely voluntary and are limited to the total number we are allowed or can manage. These exercises are privileges of being a cadet in good standing in the Corps of Cadets. We are constantly trying to expand our cadets understandings of our great land and its government by taking these challenging trips. We are planning to add a trip to Philadelphia and the new "Constitution Hall".
