WELCOME TO CARY NJROTC

Welcome to the Cary High School Navy JROTC Unit's website! Here, you'll find up-to-date information on our activities, events, and academic resources. We're eager for the upcoming school year and encourage cadets to get involved right away.

The Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (NJROTC) program is an excellent investment in your child's future. Our cadets learn leadership skills, responsibility, and the value of contributing to something greater than themselves. They also form lifelong friendships. The NJROTC Program aims to instill values of citizenship, service to the United States, personal responsibility, leadership, and a sense of accomplishment.

Our unit has been in existence since the fall of 1996, and we have a history of service, tradition, and achievement for which we are extremely proud of. For the past 24 years, our unit has been honored as a distinguished unit, reflecting our dedication to excellence. We strive to develop each cadet's mental, emotional, and physical strength. Our core values are HONOR, COURAGE, and COMMITMENT, coupled with treating others with kindness and respect.

Go Imps!
