Military Schools for Troubled Teens | C.A.R.E.
By Curtis Reed
Military High Schools have long been considered for providing discipline, hard work, and teamwork, to struggling, unmotivated or troubled teens. Although after further review of schools, it will be shown that military schools are effective in very few situations where the purpose for enrollment is to provide discipline and an atmosphere conducive for positive change.
Normally Military High Schools are privately owned and operated prep schools modeled after the military based colleges and universities.
Military High Schools are not intended for struggling juvenile delinquents a military school is not designed to help problem teenagers with significant problems.
Military High Schools Not for Everyone: these schools can be great for some teens and help them to excel as an adult, but these schools are not for everyone. Some kids would not be able to deal with this type of disciplinary school. Any adolescent with the following problems probably would not do well in a military school. If they:
- Defy authorities
- Disobeys rules regularly
- Has disorders like depression or ADHD
- Abuses drugs or alcohol
Military school is also a selective institution. Military schools are a long-established and well-reputed part of America’s education system, and a tremendous gateway to get military jobs.
