Fewer students needed to maintain JROTC programs in schools

This new act makes it easier for schools to run JROTC (Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps) programs by reducing the required number of participants from 100 to 50. This means more schools, especially smaller ones, can offer these programs, giving students broader access to military education and leadership skill development.
Key points
Reduces the minimum number of students required to establish or maintain a JROTC unit from 100 to 50.
Increases the accessibility of JROTC programs for schools with fewer students, potentially expanding educational opportunities for youth.
