Boarding schools in Tokyo Japan (high school)


Boarding schools in Tokyo Japan (high school)?
1) I want to go to a Japanese school over the summer (preferably in Tokyo) 2) I've already searched this question and I've seen answers like "Well, there aren't really any boarding school in Japan, at least not like the ones in the states." 3) So, whether there's a difference or not, I'm looking for a high school with dorms or something (Like in the Japanese version of 'Hana Kimi') 4) I've already visited a bunch of sites for exchange programs, but they all cost a lot and say that I will be placed with host families. I've been in foster care before and I'm done with that mess. Me and my mom also think it would be cheaper just to find a boarding school (since I would much rather do that) and pay for the plane ticket and my stay there. Things you may need to know in order to help me: -I'm a 15 year old girl. (16 in June) -My Japanese isn't great, but I do know some. Enough to make it at least, and I am still learning so I don't need it to be an english speaking school or anything. -We don't have much money to spend (at all) but I would like for it to at least be a nice school that I can feel safe staying at, nice teachers, all that jazz... but again, I can't spend much money, if any... -I'm in the 9th grade, but I'm looking for a summer program, so I don't know where that will put me. If any other info is needed please let me know! ^_^ thank you very muchness! <3
