APPROVAL OF THE VENICE HIGH SCHOOL FIELD TRIP TO PARRIS ISLAND, SC ON JUNE 25, 2024 - JUNE 28, 2024
Description
The purpose of this field trip is for the Venice High School (VHS) Marine Corp Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (MCJROTC) to visit the Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island (MCRDPI) to observe select training events, which will provide its members with an understanding of the United States Marine Corps (USMC) entry level training.
Gap Analysis
The MJROTC mission is designed to instill in high school students a value of citizenship, service to the United States, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment. It prepares high school students for responsible leadership roles while making them aware of their rights, responsibilities, and privileges as American citizens. The MCRDPI will conduct an orientation visit with VHS JROTC students to introduce them to Marine Corps basic training through observation of training events and activities.
