Tilton is now offering five-day boarding for families. This program supports the opportunity to participate in a boarding community during the week while traveling home for family time on the weekends. Five-day boarding is a great opportunity to encourage independence and growth in your child, without sacrificing quality time during their high school years.
During the week, five-day boarding students live on campus and participate in the every day activities of boarding school life. That's right –– Tilton faculty and residential staff will get your kids to class and to practice—and ensure their room is clean, too!
On the weekends, five-day boarders return home. This program gives students the experience of living away from home while also bringing families together on the weekends, so they can make the most of their time.
A HAPPY BALANCE.
We work continuously to cultivate a culture that balances academic achievement, health, and happiness. By providing the time and resources for quiet reflection amidst a busy academic schedule we offer students the gift of self-discovery that serves as a link to their confidence, independence, and joy. When students have the opportunity to become truly aware of their own strengths and weaknesses they are more engaged in setting goals and paths that are meaningful to them.
The values inherent in living with other students and adults in a residential setting are every bit as important as the lessons taught in the classroom, leaned on the athletic field or acquired in the art studio. We find that residential life is the genesis of our students' strongest friendships. Each student is placed with a roommate upon entry to Tilton School and lives in a dorm with their peers, student dorm proctors, resident faculty members and a dorm head.
