How do I tell my boss who I like that I want to go back to school in September

Ok, so I know generally you can just tell them and that's that although my situation is a little tricky.

I first started my job in 2019 as an internship for the program I was in college for. I took a 2 year baking program and had the internship at the start of my second year. I finished the internship, however a bit after that I hit a really big mental health rough patch and decided to drop out. Since then I got really good at my job and the turnover rate there is ridiculous We generally either have 4 or 5 bakers in total and I'm on of the 2 head bakers. The other head baker will most likely be leaving at some point after summer and another coworker will be leaving at the start of summer. I've grown a lot there and really do like the owner but at the same time I want to finish school and hopefully land a way better job some time after. I do plan on staying part time but it'd be damn near impossible to train someone to replace me and even if I were to do that it's unlikely that they'd stay. I get way too attached to people and places and I'm scared of putting the owner in a situation where he needs to get multiple good workers in a short time.
