5-Day Boarding: The Best of Both Worlds

Weekdays at FA, Weekends at Home
For students who live beyond a daily drive, Falmouth Academy’s five-day boarding program offers the best of both worlds—a structured, engaging academic experience during the week and time at home on weekends.

Designed for students seeking an independent school (Grades 7-12) education with expanded opportunities, five-day boarding allows students to be fully immersed in academics, athletics, and extracurricular life while maintaining their connection to home and family.

Providing a Safe and Supportive Boarding Experience
Students will reside in safe, welcoming housing staffed by vetted residential staff, ensuring a supportive and structured environment. Weeknights offer time for study, collaboration, and community-building, complementing the close-knit culture that defines FA’s day-school experience.

An Affordable Boarding Option
Five-day boarding offers many of the advantages of a traditional boarding school experience—at a fraction of the cost.

If you’re looking for a small, responsive, and intellectually ambitious school community—one that values curiosity, creativity, and individuality—five-day boarding at FA may be the right fit.
