SF: Prop V - Policy Against Terminating Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC) Programs in Public High Schools
Shall it be City policy to encourage the School Board to reverse its decision to terminate JROTC and to continue to offer JROTC in San Francisco public high schools?
In a previous election, the JROTC program was given a termination date of this year. This proposition is on the ballot in hopes of reversing that decision so the JROTC program can remain as an option for students in high school.
Some say the JROTC teaches discipline and leadership skills to young people while others feel the program is just a recruitment drive by the military.
I have no preference either way.
