C.d. Hylton High – Air Force JROTC 1

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Students are introduced to the Air Force JROTC program with instruction focusing on aerospace science, including aviation history, principles of aircraft flight and navigation, development of aerospace power, aerospace vehicles, rocketry, space and technology programs, and the aerospace industry. Students explore Air Force traditions, customs and courtesies, character, and the foundations of U.S citizenship. Leadership education develops leadership skills, acquaints students with the practical applications of life skills, and includes a drill and ceremonies component. Instruction in personal wellness and health and fitness encourages cadets to lead healthy, active lifestyles into adulthood. Students electing to use JROTC 1 in 9th grade as a substitution for their physical education graduation requirement must enroll in the full-year health course in tenth grade. The health course will include ninth and tenth grade health, CPR, and Family Life Education. Inperson courses will include Driver Education; however, if a school does not have the minimum enrollment to support an in-person health course, students will be enrolled in a virtual course.
