Boarding Program
The Upper School’s five-day boarding program provides a combination of school and academic concentration during the week coupled with family and home life on the weekends. The program houses up to thirty co-ed students and provides the opportunity to attend boarding school while still maintaining contact with one’s family.
The small community of boarding students enjoys separate, single sex wings that share common lounges and study halls. Students are directly advised by six faculty members who live on the boarding corridor, and they enjoy close relationships with all the campus’ residential faculty.
While only a small portion of the student population takes part in the five-day boarding program, this element of the school life shapes the entire community, creating a true residential culture that extends from evening library hours to breakfast and dinner on campus. The boarding atmosphere benefits boarding and day students alike through the relationships it forges between students and faculty, and the sense of “home” and community it offers to all.

Famous quotes containing the word program:
“The average Kentuckian may appear a bit confused in his knowledge of history, but he is firmly certain about current politics. Kentucky cannot claim first place in political importance, but it tops the list in its keen enjoyment of politics for its own sake. It takes the average Kentuckian only a matter of moments to dispose of the weather and personal helath, but he never tires of a political discussion.”
—For the State of Kentucky, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
