[quote=Anonymous]Setting aside the apparent urge of the commenters to put their personal equitable or political spin on specific schools, and focusing on the educational and developmental experience, in my experience the all-boys route was great for my son. We noticed very quickly that (i) the boys were more willing to try and do activities that might not be considered as cool in two-sex settings, (ii) the boys actually supported each other, regardless of the nature of the activity, and those bonds have lasted across the usual "cliques", and (iii) the SS environment enabled teachers to be able to teach in ways that boys responded to, the result being that they truly enjoyed learning.
