boarding school is a place where parents ship off their own kids. don't get me wrong going away prepares kids for college more than any other place. you have life changing experiences but many times the kids 80% of the time feel completely abandoned. most of the time its just a bunch of flithy rich kids,once in a while you will find a kid on financial aid that slips through the cracks, and ends up feeling like an outcast because they can't keep up with the rich kids. many kids are secretly suicidal because of the pressure to get into a good college, get good grades. and really smart people are outshined by even smarter ones. drugs and alcohal are used alot the schools have no idea. many students from prep school go to colleges like columbia and Harvard. if your going to go to boarding school go to one in Connecticut.. i mean it is the richest state in the nation. duh

when your best friends live in california, turkey, korea
when the the dean has seen you in your pajamas and its normal
when your advisor whose know you since you were 14 becomes your dad
when the students and teacher joke like siblings
when your going to school on presidents day and federal holidays have nothing to do with you
when the internet shuts off at 11pm
when you go to school 6 days a week including saturdays
when your next door neighbor is from papal new guinea
when youve learned how to swear in 6 differnt languages
when you can distinguish between korean, thai, japanese, taiwanese, and chinese because you hear it all the time
when you become closer to your friends rather than family
when your in 11th grade. but youve been home twice this year
when you took A.P chemistry as a sophomore
and calculus B.C as a junior
when an A stands for average
when everybody has at least a 3.6 gpa
