Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFJROTC): The Air Force Junior Reserve Training Corps. Pathway program is designed to build citizens of character dedicated to serving their nation and community. Because the U.S. Air Force governs the program, the citizenship training is conducted under the framework of an aerospace science program designed for high school students.

The curriculum is divided into a four-year program, with students earning one academic credit for each year of JROTC they complete. There is no minimum number of years a student must remain in JROTC, but motivated students gain rank and increased responsibility with each additional year, so the students that remain the longest typically get the most benefit. Enrollment is open to students in grades 9-12 who are United States citizens or aliens admitted to the United States for permanent residence. Under certain conditions, provision may also be made for handicapped, special needs or foreign students. (Note: AFJROTC is not a military recruitment program and there is no military obligation for participating.
