They’ll be expelled. Most elite boarding schools expel a lot of students for much much less. Also, many are located in the middle of nowhere. Try finding a mall much less a dealer. Lots of trees and fresh air and sunshine.

For me, it was a curriculum I haven’t yet found at any day school. It was the experience of being with super smart kids from all over the country, and all over the world.

It’s not for everyone, but it was amazing for me.

It was amazing for me as well. Hope to send our kids to boarding school if they can get in.

An opportunity to be admitted in 9th grade and not deal with a class of kids who have all known each other since K or 4th.

Hah. I went to college with a lot of people who went to these elite boarding schools and they all did drugs and worse while in high school. They were pretty messed up.
