Sports and Academic scholarships in USA
One of the most unique and valuable aspects of high school education in the United States is the blending of education with athletics and arts. Boarding schools in the United States have an even more effective blending of these programs than day schools.
The coaches and trainers of the students are also members of the academic faculty of the school. This allows the student to develop in a well-rounded way academically and in their sport or art, which significantly helps to prepare students for college and professional opportunities.
The programs include morning workouts and training before school, meals on campus, workouts and training after school, competitions on campus, transportation to and from all events on or off-campus, preventative medical care, assessment of injuries and post-injury care, academic support, counseling for college placement, personal counseling, and much more. All of this is centralized to the campus and community of the boarding school which promotes efficiency and a community of care and support in which everyone encourages and celebrates each other.
