and you consider that to be and advantage?
Try and control your inclination to over-dramatize. The Gonzaga boys and other boys have plenty of time to interact with girls after school, on weekends, during vacations. School is 6 hours a day for 180 days a year.
Don’t insist everyone follow your preferences. And please don’t attempt to lecture. We know your viewpoint. We, who send our boys to schoools like Gonzaga, have chosen to reject it.

There’s no economic pressure to do so, and there’s no place to put the girls. Unless, of course, the idea would be to reduce the number of boys.
It’s a ridiculous idea put forward by someone just trying to stir the pot.
This is exactly how your son will talk and think after going to Gonzaga.

It's for boys that can't control their hormones and only see women as an object of sexual desire instead of a person.
Parents can't control their boys so they send them to coed to "focus on schoolwork".
Of course they are never socialized to treat women as equals so there is that problem.

No way, all the schools would trounce them in sports if they had 1/2 as many boys.
Girls can't even be in the stands with these boys because of the atrocious behavior .... you can't subject girls to that in a school setting.

The premise of this is silly.
Landon is in no way a rival of Gonzaga’s. The schools serve different communities, largelY different areas and rarely play one another in the major sports.
Gonzaga has always viewed St Johns and the other WCAC schools as rivals and somethes brother Jesuit school, Georgetown Prep.

You don’t need to add girls to a school so that they can civilize the boys, lady.
Many of us prefer single sex schools for our boys as well as our girls for high school. There’s obviously a big market for it too.
Plenty of coed schools for you - St John’s, Good Counsel, Maret, Burke, Sidwell, GDS, wash International , Sandy Spring Friends, Potomac - the list is endless.
Your kids couldn’t get into any of those??

Rude!!! Rivalries may be strong, but there are great guys at Landon. And, this whole post (if even legit) is a troll trying to push yield at either St. John’s or Prep.
Ha ha - it was funny. Lighten up a bit, would ya?
