Five-Day Boarding Program

A LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCE

Five-day boarding offers the best of both worlds! Upper schoolers enjoy all that our campus has to offer during the school week and then head home for family time over the weekend.

Living on campus makes it more convenient to participate in McDonogh’s many extracurricular activities and gives students opportunities to study, make new friends, and build community with campus residents. In a supportive setting, boarders develop the independence, self-discipline, and personal responsibility needed in college and beyond. Boarding is available for the entire year or one term at a time. 下载 应用程序.

To qualify for boarding, a student’s primary residence must be within 90 miles of the McDonogh School campus in Owings Mills, 马里兰. Exemptions may be made if the applicant has a relative (by blood or marriage) within the 90-mile radius and that family member agrees to serve as a local host family on weekends and in cases of emergency. Due to the nature of our five-day boarding program, students must return home on weekends, and sometimes more frequently due to holidays, 天气事件, 或疾病.

The Benefits of Boarding: An Investment in Personal and Academic Growth

MAXIMIZING OPPORTUNITIES

Boarders truly live where the McDonogh action is. Living on campus makes participating in activities and events easy and convenient. From athletics to the arts to student leadership, students can experience the best of McDonogh right outside their dorm door. 

The Five-Day Advantage

学生 experience the best of both worlds—spending five days engaging in all that the McDonogh campus has to offer and two days focusing on family life at home. This dynamic prepares students for college life as they learn to manage their time and freedom as individuals before returning to the comforts of home. 

Living on campus during the week gives me more time to focus on school work and participate in extracurricular activities.

Academic Support

学生 who live on campus benefit tremendously from the many opportunities to study and collaborate with their peers. Daily study hall provides structure in completing their assignments, and face-to-face interaction with residential faculty members enhances their academic experience.

Building 社区

Residential students thrive in the special community that living on campus provides. The experience of living, 吃, 研究, and celebrating with fellow students helps foster lifelong friendships. Boarders also develop personal connections with 校园 父母 who provide constant support and make the residential community truly a second home.
