<p>If you do a search for "Tabor" on this board, you will find many discussions. Here is a post by chopper offering to answer questions about the school <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/prep-school-admissions/301424-acceptances-tabor.html?highlight=tabor%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/prep-school-admissions/301424-acceptances-tabor.html?highlight=tabor</a> . He hasn't posted in some time.</p>
<p>For whatever it's worth, I met the mother of a Tabor graduate last weekend, and she loves the school. She stated that the sailing program is much stronger than the one offered by St. George's. </p>
<p>I can comment on Sat. classes in general. For specific information when Tabor's Sat. classes end, you can probably find a daily calendar on the Tabor website. My son goes to a school with Sat. classes, and I have never heard him complain. Perhaps this is because everyone else does it, and because we discovered that he has longer vacations than other boarding school friends who do not have classes every Sat. Many boarding schools have shorter academic days on Wed. & Sat. so that athletic competitions can be scheduled.</p>
<p>i noticed that about Tabor . LONGER vacations.</p>
