Brummana High School is unique as an English medium Independent School in Lebanon in that it values its boarding provision which enables students both locally and from other countries to enjoy a first-class education at BHS.  Boarders live under the care of Mr. and Mrs. Aouad in Edinburgh House in a comfortable environment in which they can flourish as students academically, learn the skills of personal independence and, critically, became strong communicators and effective team players in a tightly knit community.  The facilities are on the students’ doorstep and they have no need to worry about the tedium of daily travel to and from school.  We are setting up an arrangement which will allow day students to convert to becoming boarders on a flexi (one, two or three days a week) basis or on a weekly (Monday to Friday) basis, to take effect from April 2019.  Charges for flexi boarding will be US$ 60 per day, and US$ 75 per weekend day (this includes accommodation and meals), and (US$ 275) for weekly boarding (Monday-Friday). If weekends are included the charge will be US$450.  Flexi boarding need not be two or three days every week, but could, for example, be a stay in the Boarding House, when parents are out of the area or country on business.  Equally weekly boarding may be of interest for students who have long journeys from Beirut or other Lebanese towns on a daily basis. Parents who are interested in the flexi or weekly boarding options for their children may contact Mr. Rabih Aouad on email rabih.aouad@bhs.edu.lb or on 03-285176.
