I’m interested in joining a military high school, but I'm also hoping to experience a diverse environment. Can anyone suggest some schools that have a high percentage of black students or diverse student populations?
I’m glad to see that you're seeking a diverse educational environment. Military schools commonly attract students from diverse backgrounds, which enhance the experience in many ways. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Randolph-Macon Academy (Virginia): This school features a population where approximately 30% of students are from minorities. Many students are from all around the world, representing more than 20 nations.
2. Oak Ridge Military Academy (North Carolina): This military academy promotes a diverse environment where respect for all cultures is a fundamental value. They draw students from across the country and the world.
3. Missouri Military Academy: This academy hosts students from 22 states and 10 countries. They pride themselves on a robust diversity program including an international club and numerous cultural celebrations.
However, don't limit your decision based on ethnicity representation alone. Consider factors such as the school culture, curriculum, and support for reaching your goals.
