Are you struggling like many other parents
to find a way for your child to excell in School? Finding
it hard to have teachers engages with your student because
of overflowing class rooms.
Things that we have found in our Boarding School
Resources Review are:
- Attention to students in class rooms - boarding schools
generally have small class sizes then do local schools.
That has incressed the help of teachers engaging with
every student.
- Eye to Eye contact from teachers and students are
often encouraged. Student participation and eye contact
among everyone in class helps with peer relationships
and learning.
- Quality of faculty - the majority of boarding school
faculty have advanced degrees in either education or
another specialty.
-
Quality
of resources - student resources at boarding schools
- such as the library, theater facilities, or athletic
complexes - can often be superior relative to local
options.
- Challenging academics - academics at boarding schools
operate at high standards. Students are pushed to "ask
why," become inquisitive, and tackle challenging
problems.
- Broad and diverse offerings - course selections at
boarding schools tend to be quite diverse, have plenty
of AP options, and offer a wide range of topics. Athletic
and extracurricular options tend to be broad as well,
which encourage students to try new things. Many boarding
schools also offer opportunities to study in different
countries for a term.
- College counseling - college counseling departments
at boarding schools are generally well-staffed and taken
quite seriously.
- Counselors often have plenty of experience in helping
applicants identify appropriate schools and advising
them on getting-in at competitive institutions.
