[quote=Anonymous]I tho k it’s one of those imprecise terms that means different things in different circles or to different people. I’ve never heard anyone say prep school and mean boarding school, but I’ve never known anyone actually attending or sending their kids to a NE boarding school, either. They may well refer to them that way. While most of the private schools in DC are technically prep schools in the original, “college preparatory” meaning (and several do have that as part of their names), most folks don’t call them prep schools either, just private schools.
