In preparation for the official JROTC Program Assessment every three years, the GRC program undergoes a self inspection each March.

“It’s basically an event that teaches everyone what the ‘real’ inspection is like,” said Colonel Alexander. “It keeps us always ready from year to year.”

The JROTC higher headquarters (7th ROTC Brigade) will visit GRC for the next JPA in March 2019. The practice inspections, outlined by Colonel Alexander below, replicate the JPA.

The Seniors (LET-4) conduct a 1-hour briefing of our program & our accomplishments to VIPs (including EKU Army ROTC, at least 1x GRC Principal, and other VIP (like members of the school-board).
