Studies Show...

  • All-girl environments with girl-only peers helped build community and increased girls’ self-reported amount of learning.
  • At the start of college, girls’ school graduates in the U.S. rate their confidence in their math skill abilities 10% higher than do their coeducated peers.
  • Nearly 80% of girls’ school students report most of their classes challenge them to achieve their full academic potential compared to only 44% of girls at coeducational public schools.

In all-girls schools, students... 

  • Express themselves more freely and frequently
  • Explore topics on their own more frequently
  • Feel more supported
  • Are more likely to consider majoring in math, science, and technology, report greater science self-confidence, and report more academic interest in computer science
