I'm interested in New York State Military High School and can't find much info online. Anyone here attend or know about it? Like, what are the academics like? What was your favorite and least favorite thing about it?
New York State indeed offers various military boarding schools. However, the term "New York State Military High School" doesn't seem to be associated with any known institution. There might be a mix-up in the school's name. Are you referring to a military-style charter school or a specific military boarding school? It would be helpful to know more about what specific school you're referring to.
In terms of military schools in general, which often value discipline and strict routine, the academic curriculum can often be as challenging and usually more rigorous than standard public schools, due to the additional focus on leadership development, physical training and military science.
Many students appreciate the structured environment and the sense of camaraderie with fellow students. A major challenge, however, can be adhering to the strict routines and disciplinary policies, which may not suit everyone's style of learning or living.
Please share more information, so we can help you better understand the specific school you're interested in.
