What are the pros and cons of going to boarding school?
How do you know you’ve chosen a good boarding school? Is single sex or co-ed boarding schools better?
The pro’s of boarding school are quite obvious. The education is the best education you can get at any school. The individualized education and the dedicated teachers is why someone should really go to a private school. I went to boarding school for 3 years. I never got home sick and I lived 5 hours away. The cons of boarding school is boredom. The fact that the only time you can truly get off campus on the weekends, which really sucks. It is all worth it in the end when you get your high school diploma. I don’t think I should give a list for this one, it is only what you truly believe. The only real pro is that boarding school changes your life, in the best way possible.

How do you know if you’ve chosen a good boarding school? Do a google search see what comes up. Basically the best boarding schools are HADES- Hotchkiss Andover Deerfield Exeter St. Pauls plus Choate.
Look at college matriculation to see how good the school is academically.
go to talk.collegeconfidential.com. Scroll to "prep school forum".

Read out this article, its all about pros N cons of going to boarding schools… http://www.myboardingschool.com/ProsNconsboardingschool.html , I hope this helps you in getting the required information..& it also lists some good boarding schools information. In my opinion, Co-ed is better, it gives you confidence and socialize you more. See the debate on Co-education is better than single sex education, here http://wiki.idebate.org/index.php/Help_talk:Editing .
