| Naval Science
Naval Science is designated by the Chief of Naval Education and Training as a four-year (versus a four-semester) program and is intended to be taken one course per year in each of the four high school years, 9-12. Taking more than one Naval Science course in a school year is strongly discouraged and must have prior approval of the Naval Science instructor before it will be allowed. Approval will not be granted to students starting Naval Science in their freshman year. |
| Naval Science I
Naval Science I introduces students to the precepts of citizenship, the elements of leadership, and the value of scholarship in attaining life goals. This course is also designed to engender a sound appreciation of the heritage and traditions of the United States of America with a focus on the historical significance of sea power. An emphasis on the development, in each cadet/student, of a sense of pride in his/her community, school, unit, associates, and self is a predominant theme throughout the course. These elements are developed from a fundamental level. |
| Naval Science III
Leadership is the paramount topic in the Naval Science III course. In addition to continued stress being placed upon the Fundamentals of Democracy and U. S. Naval History, the students/cadets are introduced to the vital importance of military justice, international law, and national security. The course continues the instruction on Naval Science to include astronomy, meteorology, weather, navigation and maneuvering, and sea power. The course will include reading, writing, and practical exercises. |
| Naval Science IV
Naval Science IV is the culmination of the Naval Science program. As in Naval Science Ill, leadership is the primary emphasis in Naval Science IV. It is a leadership lab course. Naval Science IV cadets (high school seniors) will attend class with new Naval Science I students and practice leadership skills during military drill periods under the close supervision of the instructors. During academic periods, Naval Science IV students will pursue a rigorous course of study in leadership techniques, effective communication, and group dynamics. Naval Science IV students are expected to be role models for all Naval Science students. The course will include reading, writing, and practical exercises tailored to both college and non-college bound students. |
| Naval Science II
Naval Science II builds upon the foundation begun during Naval Science I, to further develop traits of leadership, citizenship, discipline, and self-confidence that form the basis of the Naval JROTC program. In addition to classroom exposure to leadership and management skills, the course examines U.S. Naval History from 1815 to World War I, and U.S. Government concepts that are related to a citizen's rights and responsibilities. The technical aspects of the course include ship construction, oceanography, navigation, small boat seamanship, and naval weaponry. As in Naval Science I, the themes of pride in self, community, and school will permeate the course. Simultaneously, service and leadership will be stressed. These elements are developed from the advanced level. |
