Covington High Navy JROTC

The mission of JROTC is to motivate young people to be better citizens. The program promotes graduation from high school, and provides instructional opportunities which benefit the student, community and nation. There is no obligation to be involved with the military in any way after graduation. Freshmen will be encouraged to remain in the JROTC Leadership Program for four consecutive semesters. Opportunities for school community services, field trips, early leadership assignments and extracurricular activities are available. Completion of the course (3 or 4 years) makes a student eligible for advanced promotions in any of the military services. Significant assistance is given to those students applying for any competitive paid college ROTC scholarships or service academy appointments.
