Ross School

The Ross School, founded by Courtney Sale Ross, launched its boarding program last year and has already attracted more than 50 students from 10 different countries. Students are coming to the Ross School, founded in 1992, from as far away as Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan, according to an article in the East Hampton Star. At first, the boarding program began with just five students, but has quickly expanded to include 50 boarders, which is about 25 percent of the high school. There are plans to grow to an overall boarding population that will represent 50 percent of school community, according to the school's Web site.
