The programs offered at summer boarding schools are as diverse as each school. Most boarding schools go to great lengths to develop educational, yet fun programs for students and have formed some tantalizing educational options from whichto choose. When your child attends a summer program, you can be assured that it’s meaningful and well-designed, as well as designed to challenge your son or daughter on many levels during their unique journey through life.

Every classroom eventually takes on the aspects of a unique environment, thanks to the combined personalities of the teachers and students who use it over the years. But how many classrooms are already so unique, so rich in history, natural wonders, and educational opportunities that the location itself takes academics far beyond the average level?

Summertime can mean wonderful summer boarding school programs for many middle and high school children from around the world. What could be better than spending several weeks in a beautiful location, immersing oneself in the local culture and environment while learning about exciting technological developments, various ecological systems and taking international foodie tours? These programs and more offer a special opportunity for children approaching their entry into grades 6 through 8 or 9 through 12.

Summer is a time when students the world over love to break free from their traditional classrooms and participate in a variety of activities. For many, summer provides the perfect opportunity to live independently at a boarding school in another state or country. If a few benefits include being able to climb the snowy peaks of Mauna Kea, scuba dive in the Pacific Ocean, and watch the active lava flow at Kilauea, so much the better!
