Roosevelt High School Battalion

The Roosevelt High School Battalion was established in the early 20th century as part of the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) program, designed to instill leadership, discipline, and citizenship among its cadets. Over the decades, the battalion has participated in numerous local and regional drills, parades, and community service projects, earning recognition for its commitment to excellence. During periods of national crisis, such as World War II, many Roosevelt cadets and alumni answered the call to serve in the armed forces. Today, the battalion continues its proud tradition by preparing students for leadership roles both in the military and civilian life.
