Spanish term
escuela-hogar
Spanish to English
Social Sciences
Psychology
Es un tipo de escuela pública que existe en zonas rurales de Argentina donde los chicos en edad escolar estudian y viven durante el período lectivo bajo el cuidado del maestro/a. Sus casas se encuentran a muchísimos km. de la escuela, y trasladarse ida y vuelta todos los días sería imposible.
No es una boarding school ni una farm school. Se les llama escuela-hogar por la doble función que cumplen.
No sé si hay un equivalente o debería mejor dar una pequeña explicación?
Gracias!

stay-in school
tal vez sea buena idea agregar una nota con una pequeña aclaración del tipo de instalaciones para explicar la diferencia con lo que sería una "boarding school"

boarding school
¿Y por qué no "boarding school"? No es particular, claro, es pública, pero si los chicos mayormente duermen y comen ahí, es "boarding school". El término es muy adecuado.

School Home
I would call this a School Home to indicate that it serves a dual purpose for the students. It is a school and a home. It is stated in the paragraph that this is not considered a boarding school.
I would avoid using Home School because in English today this indicates that the student is educated in their own home. This is not the definition in this case.
