Make JROTC non-mandatory.


Make JROTC non-mandatory.
The Issue
It is 3rd month of school and many students have passed out, vomited, or fainted due to the harsh rules of JROTC. An asthmatic girl was denied her inhaler after running, another cadet passing out from heat stroke, and yet every single day it’s like the Sergeants care less and less. Multiple students want to leave JROTC due to the fear that they might be next, multiple students have asked to leave and it was also denied. It is ridiculous how Polk County allows something like this in there schools yet there main motto is “students first.” Please help sign this petition to end JROTC’s unnecessary labor.
