I think you should take Introductory Physics during the summer, and then take MVC for Semester 1 and Linear Algebra for Semester 2 during the regular school year. If you take Introductory Physics during the summer, you wouldn’t have to take Physics Honors at school as you would already have the Physics requirement fulfilled for AP Chemistry. You could also start to take Intermediate-level Physics during the regular school year too alongside the math courses. This would ensure admission into SSP in the summer following junior year. And you could also get some letter of recs from those math and physics professors for your SSP application as well as your college application in general. If you don’t get into SSP though (I doubt this if you take those classes), you could still contact a professor and do independent research, or you could try Clark Scholars, Michigan State University HSSP Research (i forgot the acronym), etc. if you want to do research through a program
