âWe were trying to find ways help students transition from high school to life and one of the ways is the military, and we are trying to make that segway for them so we created this program for that and we created it from the ground up,â Miller said of the program. âIn order to get this program going we needed uniforms, workout uniforms, and battle dress uniforms which costs thousands of dollars.â
Crossroads High School recently implemented a JROTC program in support of preparing students for life beyond high school. The goal of the program is to develop character skills, including critical thinking, leadership, communication, and teamwork. Daily activities include lessons on life and citizenship skills as well as physical conditioning.
Career & technology education teacher Michael Veal, a 26-year Army veteran, will serve as the programâs instructor with oversight from Copperas Cove High School JROTC Senior Instructor Chief Warrant Officer III, retired, Enrique Herrera.
âJROTC teaches the values of the military. These are important because they create a sense of ownership and responsibility,â Veal said. âThese students will take the first steps to reaching their full potential and increase their chances for success.â
