		Boarding school involves the combination of the residing of pupils at an institution away from their family and home, and the instruction and endowment of education to students at the same place.
		Pupils may be sent to boarding schools between the ages of two and eighteen; they can be sent to any number of specific types of boarding schools, from nursery boarding schools (or Kindergarten boarding schools) to senior preparatory boarding schools.
		Most societies decline to take boarding schools as the preferred option for the upbringing of their children, except in British societies or in its former colonies; in England, India, and former African colonies of Great Britain, for example, boarding schools are one of the preferred modes of education.

	Prep School Hockey Links (home page), ice hockey, college hockey, scholarships, junior hockey, prep schools.
		So why not scout a prep school game where 100% of the participants are in college preparatory programs and will likely attend college as opposed to the public school game where only 20% to 40% will attend college or the midget game where 10% to 20% may attend college.
		Though the quality of hockey is excellent, prep schools have long encouraged a wide range of athletic participation for a young person so that he or she has the opportunity to develop and test many skills and grow through a variety of experiences in several sports.
		Many are boarding schools, where students reside on the campus in dormitories, much the same as a university, and some are day schools, where students return home to their families each evening.

		And though Karl Brandt, 17, a senior at Kinkaid School in Houston, scored better on the ACT, "I wouldn't say it's easier." For one thing, the math section asks the same number of questions as the SAT, but the time allotted is 15 minutes less.
