[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] For my DS it was simple. The sport he loves is weak in this area, he got tired of spending 4-5 hours a night traveling to/ from late practices, traveling every weekend for his sport, and regularly missing every Thursday and Friday for out-of-town tournaments. We are not a boarding school family, and this was entirely his decision. He loves his former school and his friends, but he’s happy he made the decision. [/quote]
