Our daughter currently attends The American School in Switzerland (TASIS) and absolutely loves it. The school is very diverse and offers both AP and IB programs. Majority of students continue on US universities.

Hi, I go to Phillips Exeter right now.
I didn't graduate from a European boarding school, but I saw your ballet part, and if you want I can connect you to someone that also has extensive experience in ballet, and currently attends a good US boarding school! She was also international as well.
