I suppose they mean "a boarding school." Actually, they repeatedly call it a "live-in school." Is there a difference between a live-in school and a boarding school?

Most IMSA kids I knew went home to their parents on the weekends, every weekend. Most boarding school kids I knew only went 'home' for summer, winter holidays, spring break, etc.

  This certainly isn't universal. I graduated from IMSA and many (likely the majority of) kids stayed on most weekends, including myself

    Are you older than me? I was class of '09 and already the kids who lived closer by went home on a fair number of weekends. I've heard the trend has gotten even more pronounced over time.

Maybe they are trying to distinguish it conceptually from the private boarding school.
