Flexi-Boarding

Flexi-Boarding is a unique option available to students who live near TMI Episcopal, but want the convenience of staying on campus late into the evening or occasionally overnight. The program is a flexible system designed to meet the needs of busy parents and students. Unlike Full Boarders, Flexi-Boarders can stay for an extended day and return home in the evenings or have the flexibility to stay the night. There are a limited number of spaces for Flexi-Boarding, so early applications are encouraged.

Flexi-Boarders may eat breakfast and dinner in the Refectory daily. In addition, they may stay on campus until 9:30 p.m. daily, enjoying the same privileges as the 5- and 7-Day Boarders. They are allowed to stay overnight 55 nights per year.
