“Though Cindy only studied at LuHi for a year and a half, the time that she was there has been extremely meaningful and helpful. Cindy had hands-on experience in American education at LuHi which enabled her to adjust seamlessly into college. Cindy loved all of her teachers and friends at LuHi as well as her academic experience. Long Island Boarding was also able to provide a wonderful living environment for Cindy!”
