6. Have you considered
schooling away from home?
Residential and Study Abroad Programs for Teens in High School.
by Hilary Dobel
igh school is a wonderful time to
expand your horizons, but most students stick
close to home. However, with an increasing
number of educational programs offering
residential and travel options, teens today can
learn and grow by studying away from home
before ever setting foot on a college campus.
Boarding schools, semester schools, study
abroad programs, and post-graduate years
provide an exciting range of academic and
geographic options, from exotic homestays in
Vietnam to traditional boarding programs all
across the United States.
TRADITIONAL BOARDING SCHOOLS
Students can attend traditional board-
ing schools as early as fourth grade, though
most start in sixth or ninth. David Grossman,
a graduate of Philips Exeter who went on to
attend Princeton University, remembers be-

10. For Love of the Game
by Hilary Dobel
he benefits of participating in a
sport are numerous. A report from Iowa State
University shows that many student-athletes
display superior time-management and orga-
nizational skills, as well as a lower incidence
of depressive symptoms. Women and girls who
play sports demonstrate higher levels of self-
esteem and well-being. Sports can offer teens
a healthy attitude towards competition, self-
discipline, and personal achievement, as well
as a unique camaraderie with their teammates.
As students get older and sports become
more competitive, sometimes a day comes
when a player’s skill set doesn’t match up with
the expectations of a school’s team. It can be
tough to realize that not everyone gets to be
an all-star, but fortunately there are plenty of
options to continue pursuing sports outside of
school. Students don’t have to be starters on
the varsity squad to keep playing the sports
they love. There are so many opportunities to
stay with their favorite sport in settings outside
of school, that everyone can pursue some
form of athletics.
Holton-Arms offers fifteen different
sports, many at the varsity, junior
varsity, and middle school levels.
