Day school
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A day school is - as opposed to a boarding school - an institution where children are given educational instruction only during the day and after which children return to their homes. The term can also be used to emphasize the length of full-day programs as opposed to after-school programs, as in Jewish day school.
The term day school is also increasingly used for a one-off series of lectures or classes, taking place on a single day, usually on a particular topic and usually directed at adult learners with little time to spare.
