• Can you describe the experience of a 5-day boarder?

  • What grade levels are able to participate in 5-day boarding?

    Both Middle Schoolers (Grades 7-8) and Upper Schoolers (Grades 9-12) are able to participate in 5-day boarding. 

  • How do weekends work?

    5-day boarders depart campus each Friday after official school functions have concluded. 5-day boarders who have an official school commitment on Friday night or Saturday may stay on campus Friday night without an additional fee. They are expected to leave as soon as that commitment concludes. On those occasions when 5-day boarders are engaged in certain weekend activities like sports, artistic performances, or community service, they may stay over on Friday or Saturday nights, going home on Sunday morning.  Students must be back on campus Sunday evening by 7:30 PM for study hall.

    Day students may convert to 5-day boarding and 5-day boarding students may convert to 7-day boarding.
