Boarding school girls in space

[badgerbag]

Where are all the science fiction boarding school books? I can think of a few "girl on her own" books with plucky, lone heroes, like Wednesday from that Charlie Stross book or the not-quite-Starfleet anthropology cadet from "Enchantress From the Stars". But where are the boarding school books in space, where girls interact socially with each other, have their own power politics and friendships and set their own ideas of what's important?

Are there any?

If not, we should be writing some.

Yeah, see, I actually went to an all-girls' school, so the idea of valorizing that experience...well. It's just not the sub-genre for me, I expect.
