If you dive as deep into the theory as you can, grab as much info as you can, and grab a good high school course in digital logic it will give you a good foundation for an EE degree.
Congratulations, high voltage people will never have to look far for a day job! nobody else wants to mess with it

I design high voltage power supplies for a living. Been doing it for 34 years, and have never had to look for work. Analog circuit designers are becoming scarce, so it's a good field to get into.

Welcome aboard! It's good to see some young people interested in the vintage electronics hobby. There's a wealth of information here, so don't be afraid to ask!
