You can do that but it will be expensive and she must be put in private school and cannot attend a public school. uscis.gov Congress enacted a law (Section 625 of Public Law 104-208) establishing section 214(m) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. The law that took effect on November 30, 1996, placed limitations on foreign students (F-1) attending publicly funded institutions and created additional requirements for intending F-1 students attending public high schools (grades nine through twelve). Student F-1 visas cannot be issued to persons seeking to enter the United States in order to attend a public primary/elementary school or a publicly funded adult education program

As a secondary school student,she would only be permitted a student visa for 1 year. And,she would have to pay tuition to the school she would be attending. A niece is not a close enough relative to petition for immigration purposes.
