Whether you’ve heard the myth that boarding school is for students who misbehave, believe it’s out of your price range, or simply just never considered it an option, here’s a chance to learn what boarding school really offers students.

On Wednesday, Sept. 27, 57 boarding schools from 20 states will gather for Boarding School Connect: GVL — a free informational fair about the benefits, financial aid options, and unparalleled opportunities that boarding schools provide.
