GENERAL

1-1 PURPOSE: To prescribe policies and procedures for the organization, administration and operation of the Arkansas & Memphis City Schools (MCS) Junior Reserve Officer’s Training Corps (JROTC) Cadet Leadership Challenge (JCLC). JCLC is an approximately weeklong camp conducted in a pseudo military environment to provide leadership development and learning opportunities for JROTC Cadets.

1-2 SCOPE: This handbook supplements CC Reg. 145-2.

1-3 JCLC MISSION: Provide a summer educational opportunity for all cadets allowing for a practical application of citizenship and leadership skills while introducing them to life in a military pseudo-environment.

1-4 LOCATION AND DATES: JCLC will be conducted at Camp Joseph. T. Robinson, N. Little Rock, AR.

1-5 JCLC OBJECTIVES:

a. Allow cadets to experience a modified military lifestyle and interact with peers in a safe, disciplined and structured environment.

b. Allow cadets to participate in citizenship, team building and leadership development exercises in a fun and engaging environment.

c. Allow cadets to undergo adventure type training not normally available on school campuses and participate in recreational activities.

d. Allow National Guard and Reserve personnel, Civilian Chaperones/Mentors, JROTC instructors and cadets to interact in an active learning environment where citizenship and leadership are a primary focus and cadets may be mentored as they learn.

CHAPTER III

OPERATION, TRAINING AND EVALUATION

3-1 GENERAL:

11

a. The Commander, Camp Robinson, AR will provide the necessary support to implement the approved JCLC training plan and schedule. (TBP)

b. The JCLC Commander, will provide command, control and administrative support for the JROTC cadets and accompanying cadre plus assist in training support as required.

3-2 CONCEPT:

JROTC Cadre will:

(1)Provide training in the encampment area.

(2)Provide training assistance as required at the training sites.

(3)Assume responsibility for cadet safety, discipline, health, welfare and counseling during training and non-training hours.

(4)Evaluate cadet performance.

3-3 COMMAND AND CONTROL:

a. Prior to JCLC, designated cadre will exercise command and control of all cadets en route to JCLC and through administrative and logistical in- processing.

b. During JCLC, the JCLC Commander will exercise command and control of cadets from the moment cadets are assigned, to the moment the JCLC Commander announces that JCLC is closed and releases cadets and cadre for departure from JCLC. The JCLC Commander is responsible for the health, welfare, discipline and control of the unit at all times.

c. After JCLC, designated cadre will exercise command and control of cadets from the time the JCLC Commander announces JCLC is closed and releases cadets and cadre for departure to home destination until Cadets are released to parents or guardians.

3-4 SAFETY:

a. The safety of the JROTC cadets at JCLC should be our first concern. Consideration should be given to the fact that:12

b. The typical JROTC cadet at JCLC is only 14 to 17 years old, with most just having completed the 9th through 11th grade. They are in the physiological and psychological development stages between childhood and adulthood. As such, many are overly sensitive to peer pressure and adult influence. Some will fear failure and embarrassment while others, due to a lack of experience, will be fearless.

c. They are not required to pass a pre-JCLC physical; therefore, their true state of physical, mental and emotional health is unknown. SAIs must evaluate their Cadets honestly and ensure Cadets selected for JCLC are physically capable of JCLC activities. Even so, it is possible there will be cadets medically unqualified to complete all of the activities, and a few will not be acclimated to the temperature, living and training conditions.

d. All cadets are minors and are subject to parental bonds. As students, they are participating in a school-sponsored activity. Cadre and cadets are subject to the same responsibilities of care and control as if they were on their school campus.

e. Being mindful of these facts, cadre must assure that cadets participate in activities freely, without undue peer or adult pressure and not through fear of embarrassment or failure. Clearly, cadre should not make a cadet do something they do not want to freely do.

f. Training safety and reduction of safety risks should be a major objective and concern of all cadre.

g. The following are risk safety areas that must be addressed:(1)Heat related injuries(2)Physical injuries to bones and muscles(3) Injuries caused by insects(4) Injuries to internal body systems(5)Sun related injuries

h. As a means of maximizing safety and minimizing risks, the Safety Officer will make a risk assessment of each training activity and modify training consistent with safety concerns. The Risk Management Program will be utilized and continuously updated. (Enclosure 1)

i. In each area identified in g. above, cadre are responsible to compare the risk to the capabilities or limitations of the cadets. The greater the limitations the higher the risk and greater the requirement to take action to reduce the risk.

13

j. In evaluating risks, cadets should be presumed generally not acclimated, in fair physical condition, had little or no prior training and may not follow safety instructions to desired degree. Appropriate counter-measures must be developed and applied.

k. Safety risks are not limited to the training area. Risks may also occur in the barracks area. Unattended cadets have a tendency to roughhouse and cause needless injuries to occur. Also, overzealous athletic activities may result in injuries. Generally, cadre supervision will reduce these risks to acceptable levels.

3-5 EARLY RELEASE OF CADETS:

a. Due to the short duration of the JCLC, early release of cadets for reasons other than family emergency, illness/injury or discipline is discouraged.

b. The JCLC Commander must approve all early releases.

c. Out-processing and departure of approved early releases will be coordinated with the JCLC S1. Cadre will not make any independent arrangements for early departures.

3-6 JCLC SECURITY:

All cadre and cadets will continuously monitor the JCLC area for security concerns. Cadets will bring a lock for wall lockers.3-7 CADET LEADERSHIP POSITIONS/EVALUATIONS:

a. One of the most important functions of JCLC is to evaluate the performance of JROTC Cadets assigned to leadership positions. Cadets will be chosen to serve in leadership positions and will be evaluated. Leadership positions for formal evaluation are listed below and will be rotated daily.

(1)Company Commander(2)First Sergeant(3)Platoon Leader (1 each platoon)(4)Platoon Sergeant (1 each platoon)(5)Squad Leader

b. SAI’s will nominate 1/3 of their cadets attending JCLC to be assigned to a leadership position for evaluation. The number of leadership positions are limited and are allocated to schools on a prorate share of the number of their cadets attending.

14

c. The S-1 will complete the Leader Positions Roster during the first evening of JCLC and a copy will be provided to the JCLC Commander.

3-8 CADET AWARDS:

Purpose. To establish guidance for the leadership evaluation of JROTC cadets during JCLC.

General. There are 4 leadership positions for a total of 18 evaluations daily. Each cadet must be rated using ATTC Form 145-14-R, Apr 96. The evaluation process for each of these positions is critical to the success of JCLC and serves three purposes. Primarily, it provides instant feedback to each cadet on his/her strengths and weaknesses and serves as an instrument to bolster their confidence. This rating also allows school cadre the opportunity to objectively assess their own training program. Lastly, it serves as a basis for JCLC awards. The rater must remain aware at all times that they are rating high school students with all their attendant insecurities and temper their comments accordingly. The objective of JCLC is to build confidence in the physical and leadership abilities of our cadets. The rating system serves as means to focus attention on these abilities. Raters must take into account the age and maturity level of the cadets. Whenever possible soften negative comments and stress positive achievements.

Responsibilities.

Executive Officer: Ensure that cadets are evaluated in their leadership positions and provide each SAI with the results of their evaluations.

(1) Instructs all evaluators on the evaluation process including the use of ATTC Form 145-14-R, Apr 96 and its associated leadership dimensions. This class will take place after in processing.

(2) Complete the Leader Positions Roster the first evening and provide a copy to the Camp Commandant.

Enclosure 3(3) Conducts nightly debriefing and briefing of outgoing and

incoming cadet chain of command.

18

JCLC NCOIC: Establishes with the other instructor cadre the primary chain of command for each training day.

Company Cadre.(1) Closely monitor cadets in the daily leadership positions.(2) Complete ATTC Form 145-14-R, Apr 96 at the end of each training cycle.(3) Debrief cadets on their duty performance. Whenever possible the cadet should be debriefed by the respective company cadre (i.e., cadet Company Commander by the cadre Company Commander).(4) Provide a detailed briefing to the next cycle’s cadet leadership. This briefing should cover duties, training scheduled and special requirements.

Evaluation. There are six specific leadership dimensions that must be rated for each position occupied. These are Attitude/Motivation, Conduct/Obedience, Performance/Knowledge, Physical Aptitude, Teamwork and Bearing/Appearance. Each of these dimensions with their associated performance indicators are explained on pages 24 and 25. Each of these dimensions will be rated as O (Outstanding), A (Average), and BA (Below Average). O or BA ratings must be explained in detail. Raters are encouraged to use the S*T*A*R* (Situation, Task, Action, Result) concept to clarify their comments.

Evaluation period. The evaluation period will begin at 1700 hrs daily and end the following day at the same time. The last period beginning Friday evening will not be rated.

1. As time permits throughout the day, individual actions should be recorded using the S*T*A*R System. This allows a rater to take short concise notes that allow later amplification for the actual rating card. S*T*A*R stands for Situation, Task, Actions, and Results. An example of the formant follows:

S -- Platoon to conduct training at the leadership reaction course.

T -- Form platoon and march them to the training site. Get there on time for training.

A -- Formed platoon in ample time to conduct road march. Prior to road march conducted a canteen check and filled up empty canteens.

R -- Platoon arrived on time to training site and there were no heat casualties.

2. Use of this formant will ensure the rater has ample Information to use on the evaluation card at the end of the rating period.
