Secondary Boarding

We help students find the schools where they can discover themselves.

Boarding schools offer transformative experiences that can only happen in a setting that lives an educational mission 24-hours a day, 7-days a week.

Dedicated teachers who live on-campus are accessible to students around the clock, whether for extra help during evening study hours, coaching on the soccer field, or an extracurricular conversation about computer programming or U.S. history over a board game on Saturday night. By getting to know students in the classroom, on athletic fields, in the dining hall, and as dorm residents, faculty develop a comprehensive picture of each student’s strengths and areas for growth. Top-notch facilities are available for athletics and the arts, while service and social activities are interwoven throughout the community.

Depending on their mission and focus, these schools offer a wide variety of signature programs. At The Bertram Group, we help families find the right fit with a school so that students reap the full benefits of a secondary boarding opportunity. We have decades of experience in matching teenagers to environments that foster their intellectual, social, physical, and emotional growth. As a result, our candidates embrace their emerging independence, graduating with impressive maturity, academic and leadership skills, and a sense of self that they carry forward into college and future careers.
