Different types of boarding schools

College Preparatory Boarding Schools

College preparatory boarding schools have rigorous academic curriculum, array of extra-curricular activities and sports to prepare the students for the postsecondary education. Those schools are divided by age/grade:

• Junior boarding schools Grade 5 to grade 8 or 9
• Boarding High schools: Grade 9 to Grade 12, some include Grade 13 or Post-Graduate Year

Within both junior and high-school college-preparatory boarding schools, there are additional distinctions between schools:

• All-boys or all-girls boarding schools – while fewer in number, there are a number of single-sex boarding schools in the USA.
• Military schools – these boarding schools also prepare students for college-life, with the addition of military-type discipline and structure.
• Pre-professional arts schools – these schools specialize in helping students train and become artists in a variety of fields such as music, visual arts, theatre, ballet, and creative writing. Students are prepared for entrance into either traditional colleges or specialty schools like music conservatories (e.g., Juilliard).
• Religious boarding schools – these schools have an emphasis on a particular religion and spiritual growth.
• Additional IB or AP curriculum

Some of the schools provide assistance for kids with learning disabilities.

While the top college-preparatory schools require good command of English, as they do not offer ESL based classes or curriculum for non-English speakers, there are some schools that do offer ESL supplementary program.*
