[quote=Anonymous]My DD was at a co-ed school for K-8. She is now at an all girls school. We have all agreed that she will attend a Co-ed college to prepare her for the real world where she will (most likely) be working closely with men. Not to mention the social benefits of co-Ed. But she loves her all girls education and I think it is really beneficial for specifically these teen years for her to be in this environment and develop confidence and leadership abilities. She really appreciates the tenor of the classroom and is able to concentrate much better than her previous co-ed school.

I started considering all girls schools when I read an interesting study on how 66% of the interruptions on the Supreme Court were directed at the three women Justices. https://www.glamour.com/story/how-frequently-women-supreme-court-justices-are-interrupted-by-men That really spoke to me, as it involves highly educated people who are very respectful and civil. And I just thought…I want my DD to experience something different.[/quote]
