Without the pressure of gender stereotypes and girls around to impress, boys in single-sex schools are free to explore the arts and languages as well as sports and other extracurricular activities. With fewer distractions like video games, television, and other forms of escape, boys can focus on school and friendships, getting organized, and improving their communication skills. They gain confidence in their ability to learn without being compared to girls who tend to mature more quickly and enjoy earlier success in school.

“It’s my personal opinion that all high schools should be single-gender,” says Susan Hardy, the executive director of Stone Mountain School. “Though it’s great to have shared mixers or lunches for social networking, co-ed classrooms can do a great disservice to both genders. For females, all-girls schools help them come into their own sense of power and build self-esteem. For males, all-boys schools give them the freedom to define success by their interests and accomplishments rather than their popularity with girls.”

“For boys who are struggling with learning issues or phone number data problems, sometimes a ‘back to basics’ approach is best,” adds Steele. “In a single-gender environment, they can get their peer and family relationships under control before entering the more complicated co-ed setting.”

Accomplished Teachers and Role Models. There is no shortage of role models at all-boys schools. Both the male and female teachers and counselors have experience working specifically with boys and developing lesson plans that are effective for young men. Teachers, counselors, advisors, and other trusted adults are also more accessible at boarding school, which helps foster meaningful bonds. These role models demonstrate teamwork, healthy communication, and effective coping strategies that ease the transition into adolescence and adulthood.

“Many young boys with learning differences or ADHD taste failure and frustration early on at school,” notes Steele. “One of our early goals at Stone Mountain is to reverse that cycle and get the students reinvested in education through role modeling and giving them frequent opportunities to succeed.”

A Smooth Transition into College. Boarding school grads tend to be more prepared for the academic and personal challenges of college. for their own actions, belongings, and personal well-being because they have already experienced living away from home. While boarding school is highly structured and students receive constant support from teachers, advisors, and peers, they grow leaps and bounds in terms of self-sufficiency and maturity.

All-boys private boarding schools have one main goal in mind: to create a program designed specifically to meet the educational and developmental needs of young men. To bring out the best in your child, find out if an all-boys boarding school is right for you.
