Traditionally boarding schools have had highly qualified teachers who see their work as a calling– not a job.
Children at boarding schools benefit from small classes and heightened interaction between students and their teachers.
The residential campus environment ensures that students are immersed in an educational world where learning is central to all activities. It is a unique setting that promotes a common experience, camaraderie, friendship, trust and honesty between children and adults.
Boarding school provides a unique chance to develop the skills needed for life after school. Boarding School students are uniquely prepared for university life. Graduates often end up attending the finest universities. In addition, they arrive at professional institutions better prepared for the academic rigor because of the discipline infused in them, in a boarding school.
Students are conditioned for future success because they are encouraged to achieve their full potential in a Boarding School. Studies show that Boarding School graduates not only excel at university, but advance rapidly in their professional careers.
Boarding Schools bestow on students an independence they would not have, living at home. It is an ideal preparation for the challenges and responsibilities of adult life.
Today’s boarding school students succeed at significantly higher rates than private day and public school students, especially in college and adult life, according to a recent study conducted by the Arts & Science Group of Baltimore for The Association of Boarding Schools, (TABS). The study also found that boarding school students are more likely to earn an advanced degree and achieve faster career advancement.
