JROTC CTE Curriculum

Military Science Career Technical Education Program

In 2018, the State of Nevada approved a state standardized Military Science Career Technical Education program for all JROTC service programs (Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps). This was the culmination of two years of collaborative work between Nevada DOE, WCSD CTE, and representatives from all four JROTC Services. The establishment of this program provides JROTC Cadets who pass the Military Science State Standard Exam a Career Readiness Diploma Stamp.

The Military Science State Standards consist of a common core of standards found across all four JROTC service programs, as well as a set of service specific standards.

In WCSD, regardless of JROTC service, Cadets receive the following high school credits for completing the four-year program:

• Physical Education Waiver Credit
• Full high School Health
• Three Honors credits

At the end of their third year, Cadets who pass the End of Program exam in Military Science will receive the CTE Industry diploma stamp in the Government career cluster (this certification is recognized by government and public service organizations and supports career interests in those areas.) Cadets passing the Workplace Readiness Exam offered by CTE will receive two (2) college credits.
