Shady Side Academy houses nearly 30 faculty and staff members and their families on campus, in both the dormitories and faculty housing. As part of the residential life community, these families join boarding students weekly for community dinners.

"It's impossible to know who my daughter would be now if she were not boarding, but I believe that her boost in confidence and improvement in academics is directly related to being a seven-day boarder. She has dozens of friends, role models and support people. She has learned to be responsible and has been encouraged to be empathetic and supportive of others."
"I really do believe that my education at Shady Side would not have been as complete without my boarding experience. I became a more complete person as a boarder, and I gained valuable friendships that continue to grow today."
