Senior Year in a Military High School, Michigan?

So, I'm a junior right now and I'm keen on spending my senior year in a military high school. I'm in Michigan, so any recommendations would be great!

Michigan has a few military high schools that could be great for your senior year.

One option is Valley Forge Military Academy located in Pennsylvania. Although not in Michigan, they offer a boarding school option which could give you an immersive military school experience. The curriculum at Valley Forge is designed to develop young men fully—challenging them academically, physically, and developing their character in a structured and supportive environment.

If you prefer to stay in Michigan, another option, although not technically a high school, is the Michigan Youth Challenge Academy. It's a 22-week residential program that uses a quasi-military framework and they do accept 11th graders and seniors which could match your requirement, although it's a bit different from a traditional year at a military high school.

Lastly, there's the Great Lakes Maritime Academy. While it’s technically not a high school, it does offer a range of maritime-based programs and degrees that could be useful if you’re interested in a career related to the sea or water transport.

However, attending a military high school is a big decision, so carefully research and consider all your options to find a school environment that suits you best. Remember to evaluate the programs, faculty, and support systems of each school in addition to the school's military aspects.
