ok if you are a junior you can do what is called split ops you will go to basic combat training the summer between your junior and senior year you well then be in the reserve doing one weekend a month while you finish out your senior year after you graduate you will return for AIT (Advanced Individual Training) the next summer and then from there you can stay reserve or join in as active duty

you cant do what ppl call active duty while in high school. But to answer your question you can "join" as a delayed entry. Meaning youll be going to boot camp AFTER graduation or dropping out. I would graduate because youll regret it if you dont.

you can enter DEP. contingent on your graduating high school, you can lock in a ship date and job up to a year before you actually graduate.
