[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"My daughter is a senior at a good size all girls school. I would not repeat an all girls school. The comment about weird about the boy interaction is accurate in my opinion. She is now going off to college and does not know how to interact "normally" with boys."

Do you mind sharing if she went to an all girls school all the way through from K? And did she have any outside boy influences outside of school? And I am sure she will blossom in a healthy way with boys in college!! We all take our time in that department. I am sure you have prepared her well.

response to above yes she went 3rd grade through senior. a 10 year girl. I am hoping she moves into healthy relationships in college. Worried though as the school promised many more interactions than actually happened. She has some outside of school in sports.[b] These girls seem to think it is normal to go to prom with the other girls([/b]they are all straight). I mean it is great they are comfortable with each other, but when we are in other circumstances, she is awkward I can tell.

As far as the grading system, which they are changing not until 2025 I believe, these 90, 91, 92's actually hurt the students gpa wise when applying to college and factoring the true gpa. ie, if you do not receive above a 93 say for instance it hurts you. She had a cumulation of 91-98, however in the long run, her gpa in a public schjool or another school would have been higher. Also the honors count for 1/2 of an ap class, which is another ding.

This is definitely a little weird. OP, I would make sure that the school has a strong affiliation with a nearby boys' school, for sports, academics, ECs and socializing. I think that's an important component.[/quote]

It’s actually the norm these days. A lot of kids in the local public schools as well as at coed schools go with friend groups. [/quote]
