Probably yes, although most normal schools do as well!
I don't know about American boarding schools, but I can tell you that the Middle School I went to had Houses, separated on terms of academic performance. For instance, it was widely believed that to be in Nova meant you were as dim as could be and, on the opposite end of the spectrum, students in Andromeda House were considered the creme de la creme. Houses took classes together, and in some cases were even exposed to entirely different teachers than the rest of the school. Again, for instance, Nova, Eagles, and Dolphins students had entirely different teachers than Andromeda students. Additionally, Andromeda students were the only students who did NOT share teachers with any other House, making them the Honors House. Therefore, yes, I daresay American boarding schools might have Houses, because exclusivity is a cornerstone to the boarding school system, and the separation of students by Houses would only serve to further solidify that regime.
There are several boarding houses in the Portland, Oregon area. The Yellow Pages provide eight listings of boarding houses in Portland. The Yellow Pages provides contact information for all of these houses on their website.

Boarding schools are more like a international private school. They have dress codes, and more advanced educations. They have dormitories which consists almost half of the students. Some students of he boarding schools are day students which means they live at their own houses but go to school by their parents. There are no school buses, but rather has a pick up time where parents pick up their children after sports. There are various types of sports, differentiated by seasons. Mostly on fall, there are volleyball, field hockey, etc. In winter, there as basketball, ice hockey, etc. In spring, there are tennis, etc. Also, for boarding schools, you need an interview and school tour to get in.

At the turn of the century, boarding houses in Africa were crowded and often, dirty. Residents had to share bedrooms and bathrooms with strangers and although they had the same purpose, hotels and boarding houses were not the same thing.
