Yes I will agree that there were times that I wish there were boys here but that was only inbetween classes or during free periods. Once I was in the classroom I loved not having to worry about distractions or interuptions or worry about what the guys are going to think. Yes even in a single sex classroom there was times that I still dont want to express my thoughts or comments, but I was more willing to because of my classroom and the environment I was in. I might of perfered more of going to an coed school with the classes being single sex. That why during free time and lunch we still could build up the relationship and skills needed for real life later on. When I have children I def. want to send them to a school that offers single sex classrooms, at least. But to each there own. The option should just be there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12298894.post-75126525584671705782006-12-01T21:10:00.000-08:002006-12-01T21:10:00.000-08:00I have been to an all-girls school for 6 years of ...I have been to an all-girls school for 6 years of my life, been homeschooled for one, and have gone to a school with girls and boys in separate classrooms, so I've sampled a few teaching methods. Right now I'm back at my all-girls school, and I really don't see what I'm missing out on. For one thing, I know for a fact that several of the girls in my class would most likely not raise their hands and speak up more with boys in the room, afraid of looking stupid. With girls in the class, it's a much more comfortable atmosphere, and it's not like not being able to discuss boys every second of the day is a very important chunk of our education. I think that the benefits of single-sex classrooms heavily outweigh the oppositions. And school isn't our whole life: there's plenty of time to meet boys if you feel the need in other activities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12298894.post-30299390964625947502006-12-01T04:47:00.000-08:002006-12-01T04:47:00.000-08:00I think it's helpful.

That's how it is here. I wish they would just do single sex, it would be so much better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12298894.post-22065310443093970202006-11-28T13:47:00.000-08:002006-11-28T13:47:00.000-08:00I do not think it is helpful, you need to be comfo...I do not think it is helpful, you need to be comfortable around males, this prepares you for life, my friend is a really good friend of mine and he is a boy. Also it is completely natraul to 'like' a boy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
