Wylie East High School hosted its annual JROTC competition last week, marking 12 years of bringing together cadets from across the region to showcase their skills.

The event, held Saturday, Feb 1, has been a staple for the school since its inception, except for the 2020-2021 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With months of advance planning, the competition is one of the most significant events for Wylie East’s JROTC program.
