Junior Boarding Schools

We help families benefit from unique educational opportunities.

Not as well known as secondary boarding schools, junior boarding schools offer an unparalleled learning environment for students in sixth through ninth grades. Early adolescence encompasses one of the most dramatic—and vulnerable—phases of child development. During this special time, the tight-knit community of a boarding school can offer structure, challenge, and nurturing from exceptional adult mentors, who serve as teachers, coaches, and residential life advisors. Junior boarding schools are known for helping students find their confidence. The ninth grade year at these schools encourages students to become role models to younger peers at a time when they are developmentally ready to embrace the concept of leadership.

A junior boarding school education can be a life-changing gift to a child: nurturing his or her initiative and resiliency, and laying the foundation for success in secondary school, college, and life. The Bertram Group helps families identify and access these opportunities.

In Their Own Words

We are grateful for all you did to get the ball rolling for junior boarding school. The people at (school name) are amazingly devoted and great, positive role models. I’m so glad I could share this great report with you!

Parent

We can’t thank you enough for the suggestion to send (our son) to a junior boarding school, with a repeat of 8th grade—and for the suggestion of (school name) in particular. That was the perfect place for him to take a deep breath, work on his skills, and grow up in maturity and confidence.

Parent

I have been meaning to tell you of (our son’s) transformation at (junior boarding school). He began last year with a new plan and set of objectives – and has become a motivated young man with a variety of new skills, dimensions and friendships. (School name) has delivered way beyond my expectations! He is at home there and has grown in so many ways.
