Boarding School Reference - Tumblr Posts

hey so im writing a story set in a boarding school, for high school, in america, but i have no idea how they (or american schools) work, what the layout of dorms and campus' and things are like, what classes do people take or really just in general how a boarding school is? could you help me with this?

Of course! I’d recommend you first take a look at my “Writing High School” Resource Post which you can find [here] as this covers teaching, what it’s like to be in class/the learning/schooling experience, blue-prints of many high schools, the names of high schools across the country and their prestige, typical “day in the life” accounts, and more of the education aspects of the American School System. As for boarding schools in particular, here are some resources I hope will help:
