This. I have 3 friends who went to boarding school. For two of them, it was simply where their parents wanted them to go because it was affiliated with their church, and for the third friend, it was "a long story" that only a few of us know about. And even then, it can be summed up to, "it's what my parents wanted." I'd just stick with that.

I know lots of people who went to boarding school and no one ever questions it. And I'm 69 years old so I've been around long enough to get a lot of questions. Just put down where you went and leave it at that. No one's going to ask.
