In the past I have seen students, who wanted to get ahead on credits, or look at the option of early graduation, they went to summer school. Many school districts offer summet classes, which allows students to get ahead on credits, or make up for missed credits. So, summer term is an option. Another might be to look at a nearby junior or community college. Many of them have options for high school students, so you might be able to take courses during one of their summer terms, which will enable you to graduate early.

We are all capable of more than we think. You will need to find ways to balance the need for sleep and the necessary activities to manage your personal and academic life while you work to achieve your goals.
Tools that will help:
Meditation with binaural beats you can find these frequencies on YouTube or listening apps like Spotify. Look for frequencies for focus, learning and memory. You can use these to help with sleep and healing as well.
Using Nootropics such as Cognizine, Alpha GPC, Huperzine A and Bacopa Monnieri (consult with your parents and your doctor before starting such a regimen though)

I utilized the program of Zox Pro Mental photography through graduate school and in all honesty, I really wish I would have found it sooner! It is a program that really should be taught to everyone at the age of 10 and practiced throughout life!
Recognize the power within and move forward accordingly!

Interesting question. Choosing to graduate early brings to mind 2 things: 1) earning your High School's required course credits sooner than 4 years and 2) enrolling in an alternate (possibly online) accelerated program. But, both options above should be discussed with trusted adults, like parents, grandparents and school guidance professionals.
Earning your High School's required credits would require you to take extra courses could cause the quality of your education to suffer. If you are ready to sign up for additional credits this year or over the summer you might be able to meet the requirements sooner, but you also run the risk of being overloaded and falling behind on on or more classes, putting you in jeopardy of failing one or more classes.
Your school district may also offer alternative schooling options. You might be able to work during the day and take your high school classes at night or afternoons. In this scenario, you run the risk of feeling isolated if on-line remote learning is not right for you. The other risk is becoming so involved with work that you sacrifice some of your attention to schoolwork. If the schoolwork becomes a lower priority, you run the risk of withdrawing from the program or not meeting the program requirements and being removed from the on-line report program.
I strongly encourage you to write down on paper a pro and con list of the reasons you want to graduate early and risks of doing so. Leave room on that list because you might want to show it to a sibling or friend. Make sure there is also enough room left for when you discuss it with an adult. When you take in all of the benefits and rewards and compare them to the risks and obstacles - you can make the best decision for you - AND YOUR FUTURE. Good luck.

Graduating high school early can be done by doing your research and planning ahead to make an action plan. Start by meeting with a guidance counselor to understand your graduation requirements, including raw number of credits and courses you must take. They will also give advice on how alternative ways to earn credit through summer school, classes during the evenings, abbreviated courses, or credit by exam to show you have already mastered key topics. It is important to understand your motivations for graduating early and how that will inform what you do next. High school is about more than checking a box and is critical to develop personally.

From what I know, students that graduate early take advanced classes or fill their classes with as many classes as possible in order to get all of their required credits as fast as possible. Some of these students may try to do summer classes in order to get as many credits as possible. Not everyone can do this however, since the amount of classes and complexity might be too much for the student to handle. There is also the question of whether or not you want to enjoy your high school life. If you try to rush your credits you may not have the chance to enjoy it. In the end it's up to you in whether or not you wish to do it.
