Agree…not even a well-disguised troll.

lol they don’t spend their time in the neighboring town. They take the train into NYC. If you aren’t okay with that, don’t send your kid there.

It would be a completely different experience.

I went to a similar school as a Day Hop. Eighty percent of the students were boarders.

There were lots of reasons for their families to send them there. For some it was a family tradition. For some the home situation meant the boarding school was a better alternative. Others came from areas where the public schools were awful and there were no other privates.

Let him. Different connections, experience.

My son has a chance to go to Choate because my sister is a high-ranking administrator there with significant pull in the admissions department. He's excited at the prospect of going there. I know it's prestigious, but not sure if the experience is right for him. Does anyone here have experience with Choate? It seems very large for a boarding school, and the students are given a lot of freedom and independence for mere high schoolers. From what I understand, they're basically unsupervised most of the time and spend tons of time all over the neighboring town.
