Leadership Education II (LE-II)The second year continues the leadership and citizenship classes of LE-I. During LE.-II the students receive instruction in General Military Subjects with more structure and tradition than in LE.I, as well as the introduction of civilian marksmanship training and land navigation training with the map and compass. This year also provides additional learning experiences in personal growth and responsibility, as well as citizenship.
Leadership Education IV (LE-IV)LE-IV is a year when cadets really bring together all their previous learning experiences in the MCJROTC program. Senior cadets will conduct formations and inspections, as well as supervise certain training events with younger cadets. LE-IV cadets continued to be challenged academically with requirements for research projects and independent studies.

Attendance
Cadets are expected to attend all JROTC functions. This includes everything from daily classes to extracurricular activities and special events. Cadets should anticipate, as much as possible, when they will not be able to attend a JROTC requirement in order to let the instructors know in advance.
Disenrollment
Cadets may be disenrolled from the MCJROTC Program for the following reasons:
- Academic Failure: You must pass MCJROTC in order to remain a part of it. However, disenrollment is not automatic. Each case is reviewed and handled separately.
- Ineptitude: Students who consistently demonstrate an inability to develop leadership skills may be disenrolled.
- Poor Attitude: Any cadet who consistently displays a poor attitude regarding the MCJROTC program may be disenrolled
