It's official: I'm dropping out of high school.

<p>I’ll be applying as a senior next year to college. (I technically should be a senior this year, but am repeating junior year for personal health reasons.) As for community college, there’s a program called High School Special which allows students from all high schools in the area to enroll in college classes. For me, this is an amazing opportunity which allows me to study in areas relevant to my interests and pursue further education without being stifled by “just” self-studying.</p>

<p>I actually live in Brookfield, a suburb of Milwaukee, and up until now had only been considering schools out east. I will definitely look into schools close to home now, though, for obvious reasons.</p>
