Because of their proven success rate in preparing students for college admission and instilling a strong sense of self-reliance, discipline and drive for excellence, it is not surprising that many parents these days seriously consider enrolling their sons and daughters in military schools. And there are several things you must know when you begin choosing a military school to enroll in.

First, you should know that military schools does not necessarily follow a standard class size. The class sizes depend on the size of the campus; larger campuses would naturally have larger class sizes, smaller campuses the opposite. So if you're particular about class sizes, you may want to check this out with the schools you are interested in. In addition, there are several military schools these days that can accommodate girls while there are still more traditional institutions exclusive for boys.

If you are interested to enroll your kids earlier, there are schools that admit children from lower grade levels, too although majority accept only teens. You can give them a call and inquire about what grade levels they admit before you make a decision.

Another great thing about military schools is they offer a lot of extracurricular activities. Although they work closely with their students to ensure academic excellence and mold them to become productive, reliable adults later on, these schools encourage all their students interests in other pursuits through established, sports, art, theater programs and more. And this is very important for parents that would like to ensure that their children have a good balance between academics and sports or other interests.

In addition, not all schools require their students to live in the dormitories provided within the campus. While there are schools that require students to live in dormitories, there are also some that accepts both boarding students and day students.

It is also important that you talk about the school with your kids and ask their opinion about enrolling in these institutions. Take them with you when you tour the schools so they can help you decide where they would like to enroll, which schools they liked best; do remember they will study there so it is important they are happy with the environment.
