[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to one years ago. [b]There was a combination of "old boys" whose families have gone there forever, students with parents working abroad or in remote places or places with poor schools, and "speciality" students [/b]who were there to do something (usually a sport but sometimes theater, language, etc.) on a higher level than their local schools could accommodate. None of these situations applies to me now that I have school-age kids, and I also don't have $60k lying around, so we are not considering it at all.[/quote] Spouse went to boarding school, and I'd agree with this assessment and add two additional reasons to the list--some kids want to escape home and some parents have little interest in parenting.
