Military Options for SHS Students

For many kids at Sparta High School military options after school are a big concern. There will now be many military recruiters coming in to talk to students about their options that they have in the military.

It doesn't matter what branch of the military students decide they want to hop into, there will be many benefits either way. Cody Degner recently made a big decision in his life, and decided to enlist in the United States Marine Corps. "The civilian turn around for my job is what I'm looking forward to the most," said Degner. Being in the military can also help you to succeed in college after high school, "I'll get college credits for going through basic training, and for going through Marine Corp Infantry School" said Degner.

Even if you are not an upperclassman, start talking to recruiters and your guidance counselors now to see what your options are. "Start young, and become physically and mentally tough," was Degners' advice to younger kids.
