[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people send their kids away to boarding school when there are great local options? Don’t you want the extra four years to be around your children in order to enjoy each other and to support your children in-person?[/quote] Because boarding school may be significantly cheaper…especially if your kid plays travel sports. I don’t know what FA may look like at say Sidwell if you make $350k, but at Deerfield you would pay $35k and your travel sports cost would also be covered. That could easily save another $10k+. If you make $150k, it’s 100% free (plus again, the travel sports cost).[/quote]
