Methodist Ladies' College

Melbourne, Australia

I think one of the best things about attending an all-girls school is the fact that we’re not limited by stereotypes or preconceived perceptions of our abilities - for instance, there’s a lot of stigma surrounding girls playing more ‘masculine’ sports. However, these prejudices don’t hold us back in our school and we’re able to participate in a diverse range of activities without the fear of being laughed at.Student

Foxcroft School

Middleburg, Virginia

I love how supportive and loving the community here is. It’s truly my home away from home, while it might be scary at first coming to all girls school was the best decision I've ever made. I  could not have asked for a better high school experience.

Frances Bardsley Academy

Hornchurch, England

You get more chances to be a leader because everyone is a girl, so you're not competing against boys for things like student council or sports teams. It can also help you focus more on your studies without any boys distracting you. Plus [it's] very easy making friends in a girls' school.

Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart

Bethesda, Maryland

What I enjoy about attending a girls’ school is that you can have fun, be silly, be creative, be loud, be bright, or be whatever you want and you won't be judged because at [a] girls' school most of the girls are just like you.Student
