Why choose a Boarding School at Lake Tahoe?
Students and parents elect a boarding school for having more challenging academics. While at boarding school students are stimulated intellectually more than they've ever been because these schools ensure students a full immersion in an educational world where learning is central to all activities. Furthermore, boarding schools traditionally have highly qualified teachers, small classes and heightened interaction between pupils and their docents. Lake Tahoe is one of the great places in the U.S. to live. Thanks to its beautiful environment, there are many outdoors activities to do. In the summer, you can enjoy kayaking, SUPing and other water sports that take the lead. If you’d prefer to frolic in the snow, things to do in Lake Tahoe during the winter include ice skating, Nordic skiing and sliding down a snowy mountain any way you can. Lake Tahoe is also perfect for heading out on some of Tahoe’s City’s hiking trails that take on a scenic tour of the beaches and mountains on the West Shore. One of the most beatuiful things to do here is exploring the amazing views in Emerald Bay. You can almost imagine you're in the Caribbean watching this water!
