Journal to U.S. News and World Report, Parade Magazine
and National Public Radio. And while boarding students

parents are pleased that while there is plenty
to do, the city is safe, clean, and filled with small-town
charm. Among the attractions that add to Chattanooga's
charm are the theatres, laid-back coffee houses, plenty
of restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and shopping. Want
more action? Chattanooga scores big with the Lookouts
minor league baseball team, Division I college athletics,
and an annual lineup of national softball, soccer, and
tennis tournaments. Plus, the surrounding mountains and
waterways are a breathtaking backdrop for every outdoor
sport from whitewater rafting to hang-gliding.
