Next Year

So, on top of her work as a Student Minister and finishing her final semester at Harvard Divinity School, Irene has recently become enmeshed in the job hunt. I think she mentioned this, but she's focusing her search on elite boarding schools on the East Coast. I don't have much experience with boarding schools generally, but I find them fascinating. They are there own little world. Tuition for several of the schools runs around $35,000 for boarders, and several have endowments that equal more than $500,000 for every current student. And the campuses are beautiful.

A few she's looking at include the Pomfret School in Pomfret, CT, the Kent School in Kent, CT, the Deerfield Academy in Deerfield, MA and the St. Andrew's School in Middletown, DE.

And the campuses. Yowzer.



Of course, according to a recent article in the Globe, Boarding Schools have problems of their own, so maybe they're not so idyllic after all.
