Lexus Forum - Lexus Enthusiast Forums - Thoughts about going to a boarding school?

I have good grades and do not need to be sent to a boarding school, but i think it would be really fun so i am considering it. i am in 10th grade right now and i wouldn't really miss anything at my current school besides my friends. i cant wait until college, so i want to go to boarding school for 11th grade and back to my high school for my last year of high school. would that mess up my chances of getting into colleges? but i dont really know anything about boarding schools, so what are some things i should know about them before i make a decision? and for those of you who go to a boarding school, what made you decide to go? any information is appreciated, thanks!
