Proud History

"Inspiring Lifelong Christ Centered Leadership and Values”

“Learn it, Live it, Loan it…With Christ at the Center!”

Concordia’s Leadership and Citizenship Program is a cooperative effort between the school and the Army. The Army Junior ROTC program has been an integral and outstanding part of Concordia’s academic tradition since 1935. JROTC is NOT a military program. JROTC is a leadership and citizenship development program. Many of Concordia’s most distinguished alumni participated in the program. Concordia’s Corps of Cadets is recognized as one of the best programs in the nation.
