[quote=Anonymous]I went to an all-boys high school, my wife went coed. We sent both DS and DD to single-sex schools starting in 6th grade. This timing seemed great, because the hormones are running then and the boy-girl interactions get a little crazy, with some kids pairing off and other feeling left out, and perceived crises all the time. Middle school interactions are nothing like interactions in the adult workplace, so I don't buy the notion that it's necessary to be immersed in all that. Anyway, there are plenty of extracurricular coed opportunities at a single-sex school. It's just really nice not to have social issues intrude into the classroom. And I think everyone's ability to be himself or herself is part of why people bond so closely at single-sex schools. [/quote]
