First time boarding school parent - what tips do y'all have?

Hi everyone - we have our prep home for winter break, and my wife and I were reflecting on how new this is for us as parents (our kid is the youngest of three but the first in our family, like, ever, who is at boarding school). The year is off to a good enough start, making close friends and doing fine in school.

What tips or advice do you experienced BS parents have for us? Things we should be thinking about for summer planning? How can we be sure that we’re helping our kid make the most of this opportunity? Advice warmly welcomed!
