Looking For Adventure?

Join Lincoln High School's Navy Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (NJROTC).  The class is a leadership and character development program that encourages cadets to excell in an education environment. The program is not a recruiting program for the Armed Services. Many of our cadets go on to college in which the NJROTC program promotes.  There are many extra-curricular activities designed to enhance those goals.  Activities include Rifle/Marksmanship Team, Drill Team, Color Guard, Academic Team, Physical Fitness Team, and Orienteering.  Lincoln High School's NJROTC sponsors a Basic Leadership Training Camp during the summer where schools from all over the nation (As far away as Colorado) come to compete.  Active duty Navy and Marine Corps personnel facilitate training superimposed on a High Adventure Race style camp where cadets whitewater raft and compete in other high adventure activities.  For upper classmen cadets, there is a week long Leadership Academy held at the Naval Station Great Lakes, Illinois. Also during the summer months and in order to support students interested in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields of study in college, the Navy pays all expenses for upperclassmen cadets to travel and attend STEM leadership seminars at Emory-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, FL as well as the University of San Diego in San Diego, CA.  The Navy also pays all expenses for cadets to enroll in KAPLAN online courses to improve college prep scores in the ACT and SAT exams. During the school year the unit at Lincoln remains active with Rifle and Drill team meets, Orienteering meets, Winter Survival Camp and a Spring trip to a Navy/Marine Corps installations.  Cadets seeking to continue their military careers after high school do get special consideration and benefits for Naval Academy and ROTC scholarships in college, as well as excellerated rank upon enlistment in the Armed Services. So if this sounds like an organization you are interested in or if you want more information, please call Commander Paul Kast or Master Chief Greg Parrucci at 304-592-3220.
