Complete sets of uniforms are issued at no cost except for replacement. Students are responsible for proper cleaning. The curriculum for these three courses will be divided into Aerospace Sciences (AS), Leadership Education (LE), and Physical Training (PT). Aerospace Sciences and LE will account for 40 percent each of the contact time while PT will amount to 20 percent. Both AS and LE will be rotated in accordance with the following curriculum plan: /Aerospace Sciences (Exploring Space)(AS), Principles of Management (LE), Cadet Wellness Program (PT) /Cultural Studies (AS), Citizenship Character and Air Force Traditions (LE), Cadet Wellness Program (PT) /Journey Into Aviation History (AS), Communications Awareness and Leadership (LE), Cadet Wellness Program (PT) /Science of Flight (AS), Life Skills and Career Opportunities (LE), Cadet Wellness Program (PT). Air Force Junior ROTC provides a wide variety of co-curricular activities that further classroom activities and develop leadership and management skills. These activities include field trips, drill competition, orienteering, model aircraft and rocket, drug and alcohol awareness presentations, and extensive community service.
