3-5 Cadet Discipline Behavior Discipline is the cornerstone of the JROTC Program and good behavior is paramount to its successful accomplishment. We will not tolerate disruptive or inappropriate behavior during periods of instruction or extracurricular activities. Cadets are expected to behave at all times in a manner that will reflect credit upon themselves, their families, the community, and the school. Responsibility We hope that each cadet will accept responsibility willingly. It is important to understand that this is the time when we learn to take responsibility for our actions and understand that there are consequences (both good and bad) to whatever actions we take. It is not anticipated that cadets will misbehave, but a set of rules and standards are in place so that each cadet knows what is expected of them. The consequences of good behavior are obvious: good grades, promotions, awards, honors, scholarship opportunities, and more. Poor behavior will subject the cadet to loss of rank (demotion), elimination from the JROTC Program, a failing grade and other more severe actions if warranted by school policy. Goals Two of our key goals in the Junior ROTC Program are to help the individual develop self-confidence and These two facets of our program assist the individual in realizing what their responsibilities are as a citizen and assist the cadet with becoming more aware of themselves and their capabilities. Promotions The basis for all cadet promotions within the Junior ROTC Program are ability, proficiency, school behavior, grades and a willingness to perform the duties required of their rank. Promotions are not automatic, they must be earned. All could be lost with poor behavior! Military Courtesy Cadets in or out of uniform, on or off campus, are expected to conduct themselves with politeness and consideration. Military courtesy embodies the customs and manners and traditions practiced by service members. Proper military courtesy reflects upon you, our school and the Battalion”. Military courtesy is neither “Ram demeaning nor a sign of servitude; conversely it is the cornerstone used to build positive human relationships. Harassment, yelling, profanity, abuse of rank and privileges, misbehavior or a general lack of respect for others is a breech of this courtesy.
