Should I go to boarding school?

Question

I'm quite young! And keep thinking about boarding school! Should I go? and if I do what should I bring?

I was just looking on the internet and saw a place called "Annie Wright School" which I thought sounded like a good school. I think I might go there!

Answer 1

This is something you need to decide with your parents. Not faceless people on Yahoo.

Answer 2

Boarding school is a unique enviornment unto itself with
rules and restrictions similar to those at home. This is where
you live with your classmates 24-7 and have to learn to get
along with a diverse group of kids. It's a more concentrated
atmosphere of education, both on the scholastic and social
levels with planned diversions and outtings. It addresses
your development into adulthood in a holistic way (the whole
person) and though it acts like a surrogate family, is no
replacement for your own at home. If you can, try and
visit a few and see what's involved. They are diverse in
their curriculum and attitudes and you should know what
you're really getting into. If you and your family choose
this route, take a lot of personal things that remind you of
home and make you feel at ease and arrange a schedule
of visitation for your family. Will you come home on the
weekends, will it be once a month. Lots to find out.

Answer 3

Don't go. You'll miss your friends, family, and pets, your bed , your house, your yard, the streets you walk down. Enjoy your time with the people you're close to. There is alot to experience right where you are, things that you'll not be part of if you go. Life goes by so fast and before you know it you'll move on and maybe even far away. It's nice to have roots, somewhere to look back and call home. The things you go thru and the friends you spend time with now will be part of you for ever. There is reason that you were placed to grow up where you are right now, events that you were meant to see happen. So enjoy your time now and watch the movie Orange County, you'll see what I mean. The whole world will be there waiting for you, later if that's what you ever choose to do.
