So Chris tell us how many children in your home you are willing to send off to boarding school? I remember well the children from these small locations who where brought to the bigger town for school. There were many issues you would not imagine in your world for these children.  But since they are not your kids why worry.

The boarding school might be an option by choice,  for a few of the older students from small villages.   But when you start to indicate all of them leaving home, it sounds like the Indian Boarding Schools that failed so miserably in the lower 48.  Mt Edgecumbe does not deal with children in first through eight grade.  Taking those in HS leaves the small school you fault with eve lower enrollments.  An unintended consequence.
