Posted by [Currey Ingram Academy](https://blog.curreyingram.org/blog/author/currey-ingram-academy) on Mar 16, 2021 12:52:00 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ![bigstock-First-Day-Of-School-Happy-Chi-422941778](https://blog.curreyingram.org/hs-fs/hubfs/bigstock-First-Day-Of-School-Happy-Chi-422941778.jpg?width=1600&name=bigstock-First-Day-Of-School-Happy-Chi-422941778.jpg)As one of the best [boarding schools in the South](https://www.curreyingram.org/boarding-schools-in-the-south), Currey Ingram has seen a lot of its students succeed within its walls and beyond it, thriving in an environment that encourages holistic student development. We’re here to answer all your questions on what makes boarding schools different. Q: Do boarding schools provide a better education than traditional schools? A: Currey Ingram Academy’s small class sizes, individualized learning plans, and multi-sensory approaches to teaching provide students with the tools they need to grow. Academic excellence is expected not only from students, but from faculty members, too. Boarding schools in the South like Currey Ingram Academy are home to passionate educators committed to meeting the instructional and learning needs of their students. In a boarding school, that support extends beyond the classroom and into the residential life environment. It also helps that positive peer influence inspires boarding school students to do their best. A recent survey revealed that 75% of boarding school students say that their peers are more motivated to succeed versus only 49% of public school students polled with the same question. Q: How do boarding schools provide students with a head start in life? A: Boarding school students learn to be responsible at an early age and develop the necessary life, social, and self-advocacy skills. Living on their own helps them become self-sufficient, confident, and resilient individuals, ready to take on whatever challenges life throws their way. A diverse student population allows students to see life from different perspectives. This helps them learn acceptance and empathy. Q: I don’t think my child is ready for college. What kind of support is available for students like them? A: Currey Ingram Academy is fully aware of the fact that there are students who might not be academically, emotionally, or socially prepared for the typical college experience. This paved the way for the [Launch Program](https://www.curreyingram.org/academics/signature-programs), which provides a postgraduate year where students acquire the skills they need for college success. Open to all high school graduates regardless of school, this stand-alone program includes coursework, leadership training, work experience, outdoor education experience, and dual credit opportunities. Students also get the chance to experience the Residential Life boarding program on campus to have a feel of independence. Q: How do boarding schools ensure holistic student development? A: Not only do boarding schools provide an excellent education, but they also place value on self-expression, social-emotional development and provide countless opportunities for students to realize their full potential through extracurricular activities and the arts. Currey Ingram Academy’s comprehensive and inclusive Fine Arts Program, for instance, allows students to hone their craft, nurture their creativity, and discover new areas of interest. Boarding schools in the South like Currey Ingram Academy also have a solid athletics program. Mustang Athletics at Currey Ingram Academy offers both individual and team sports to students in grades K-12. Athletes have easy access to state-of-the-art [athletics facilities](https://www.curreyingram.org/athletics/facilities), allowing them to train consistently throughout the year. Living on campus strengthens camaraderie and team spirit. By sending your children to one of the best boarding schools in the South, you are giving them the education they truly deserve. *[Currey Ingram Academy](https://www.curreyingram.org/) is a boarding school in the South that supports and empowers students with learning differences to achieve their fullest potential - academically and socially - within an environment that fosters holistic student development.
