Hello everyone, I'm a high school junior in the Midwest considering the possibility of transitioning to a military high school. Does anyone know of reputable military schools in this area?
Hello. If you're considering a military-styled education in the Midwest, there are several options for you. First, you may want to consider the St. John's Northwestern Military Academy in Wisconsin. St. John's Northwestern Military Academy is a college preparatory boarding school for boys and girls in grades 7 to 12 that offers a traditional military experience.
Another reputable option is the Culver Military Academy located in Culver, Indiana. Culver Academies is a coeducational college preparatory boarding high school also offering a strong military component. With their Junior ROTC program, students are given the opportunity to develop leadership skills.
On the same lines, there’s the Missouri Military Academy, a boys-only school for grades 7-12 and offers a robust JROTC program as well.
Finally, there's also the Army and Navy Academy in Carlsbad, California. Even though it's not in the Midwest, it's a widely renowned military school that offers rigorous leadership training along with a high-quality college preparatory curriculum.
I hope this information helps and I recommend you visit each school's website to find one that lines up best with your academic and career goals. Always remember to consider location, school size, programs offered, and graduation rates before making your final decision.
