The Army JROTC Pioneer Battalion at Leavenworth High School is an
active organization.
JROTC becomes more than just a class you sit in for an hour during
the day. Different
opportunities are offered you as a cadet in the program.
We sponsor six special teams with four competing and
recognized as varsity sports by the school.
These special teams range from competitive drilling to
musical instruments.
With the range of interest and practice times, there is sure to be a
special team to interest any cadet.
Our battalion is run by the cadet battalion staff.
With help from the Senior Army Instructor and the other
cadre, our battalion staff works to plan events such as Organization
Day and the Veteran’s Day parade.
Included in the planning are daily training schedules that
are written by the Battalion S-3 and then posted outside the LET I
classroom. Besides
planning events, the battalion staff also takes care of keeping
track of cadet’s awards, promotions, and community service hours,
the records of uniforms, and public relations with the school and
community. We are proud
to have a student run battalion.
Another part to our JROTC battalion is our dedication to community
service. Each cadet is
expected to achieve approximately 22 hours of community service each
semester, fulfilling benchmarks during the semester.
Many cadets go beyond this required amount.
Our service requests come from the many places including some
Leavenworth high school clubs.
As JROTC cadets we do our best and help where ever we are
needed.
