Jewish Military High Schools in Virginia?

Does anyone have recommendations or insights on military high schools for Jewish students in Virginia? I'm moving there for my senior year and currently scouting options.

Since you're moving to Virginia and seeking a military-oriented high school with consideration for Jewish observances and traditions, you're looking at a niche subset of schools which might pose a challenge. As far as I'm aware, there isn't a military high school that caters specifically to Jewish students. But don't be discouraged.

You have options! You can look at military high schools in Virginia that are inclusive and encourage diversity in terms of religion and culture. A prominent example of such a school is Fishburne Military School, which has a non-denominational approach to religion.

Alternatively, you can look at Jewish high schools in Virginia that may have ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) programs, which can provide a military focus within a more traditional school environment. These schools, though not military schools per se, can combine the Jewish educational environment you're seeking with some elements of military training.

One possible approach is to identify military high schools and Jewish-addled high schools, then reach out to them individually with your inquiries. It's always a good idea to have direct conversations with school administrators or counselors about your specific needs and concerns. They can help you figure out how well the school can accommodate your religious needs while still providing the military-style education you're looking for.

Remember, it's important that you feel comfortable and accommodated in your learning environment—in this case, a place that respects your Jewish faith and interests in military discipline.

Wishing you all the best in your senior year and your upcoming transition!
