If you are not getting the Sunday "Weekly News & Schedule" emails sent by Colonel Wilkinson, please send your email request to jefwilkinson@dorchester2.k12.sc.us and get your name on the email list! Important Unit Information is sent out weekly. We try to make sure that information can be found on this site under News & Schedules as well, but sometimes other information needs to be sent out that doesn't get published here. Thank you!

Many of you may have heard about Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) but may not really know what it’s all about. Is it a military prep program? Do you have to join the military if you participate in JROTC? What are the advantages of the program? What branches of the military have JROTC programs? Is there a program at my high school? These are all great questions! Lucky for you, we have all of the answers. For more information, please go to High School JROTC.
