[quote=Anonymous]My DD went to a girls high school. I don't know if she learned more in specific subjects although the school was very rigorous and girls were expected to do well. What did make a difference is confidence (eg to speak up in class, to speak in front of the school), leadership (team captains, student government etc are all girls) and some freedom from distractions (significantly less time spent texting and Facebook chatting members of the opposite sex compared to my child in coed school). She is now in a coed college and seems to have no problem interacting with boys after 4 yrs in a single sex school. I agree with the pp who suggested that 12 years of all girls may be a bit much.
