[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of drugs and alchohol. [/quote] My DD was a day student at a local boarding school and this simply wasn't true. The school was very strict and girls were disciplined for on and off campus behavior. According to my DD, and our experience with another kid who attended a local private school, the level of drugs and alcohol is much higher at the local privates than at her particular boarding school. As to the people who think they are going to be having lots of special moments with their high school student - that really depends on the kid. True for one of mine, not so much for the other. The people I know with kids in boarding school tend to have very close ties with them. Not only are the breaks long, but parents frequently travel for sports events, plays and other events.[/quote]
