[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Still wading through all the posts but wanted to cut through to the chase and say boarding school has been a great experience for both daughters. Older went to Andover as a junior from an MCPS high school and is in college in the UK. Younger started at Miss Porters as a freshman and is studying abroad this year. We never could have afforded local privates. Although we miss them they are home frequently and are getting / got phenomenal educations. They were mature and independent to begin with, but BS takes it to a different level. It's been a huge opportunity for growth and we're very proud of them. We're also enormously grateful for the opportunities they've been given. [/quote] I don't understand how you can't afford local privates but can afford boarding school. Is financial aid more available at the boarding school?[/quote]
