Lake Braddock JROTC Heads to Quantico!

October 19, 2022

On October 15, JROTC worked in a workshop with the Military Order Of World Wars local Chapter at the National Marine Corps Museum in Quantico, VA. The workshop is aimed to give JROTC Cadets from all branches (Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps) the ability to work together to take ideas of best practices to use at their units/schools.

Cadets also communicated and collaborated with each other while conducting critical thinking and problem-solving to address solutions that plague our JROTCs.

The Cadets from each program communicated about their specific program and how it operates while addressing six points in their briefing:

  • Full Name and Rank
  • Name of School
  • Leadership Position in the JROTC Unit and Responsibilities Associated with that Position.  
  • Why I Joined JROTC
  • What JROTC has Taught Me
  • My Goal and Ambitions

These events all aligned with the FCPS Portrait of a Graduate (POG).  POG was adopted within FCPS in 2014 to ensure that students develop attributes and skills that will empower them to be productive citizens of a global community and successful in the workforce of the future:

  • Communicator
  • Collaborator
  • Creative and Critical Thinker
  • Ethical and Global Citizen
  • Goal-directed and Resilient Individual

We are always proud of our LB JROTC!  Thank you to Captain Guardo and Sergeant Wiles!
