It offers all types of activities, academic adventures, and opportunities. As much as I know, I can rave about this school, but there are also downsides, like every school out there. As a boarding student at a school with a majority of day students, I feel like residential life does not interact with day students outside the school environment. It can be lonely most days and can be very frustrating to navigate life during these moments. Also, the opportunities for boarding students to go out and do the same things as day students are limited. Besides the limited opportunities to adventure outside residential life, the moments and memories are what I look forward to and look back on. Recently, we had a fundraiser on campus where we would pie people. This attracted hundreds of kids, and the whole campus came together without being forced to do something fun and for a bigger cause.
