Girl's school in New Jersey : Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart

AMAZING :  Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart - Girls' school in New Jersey

  Think Critically :)) 

Why an all girls' school ? 

Girls' schools teach girls that there is enormous potential and power in being a girl.

Co-ed schools simply cannot teach this. At an all girls school a girl can find her voice and uncover her capabilities and potential in ways that have nothing to do with how she looks or whom she dates. All girls schools create a culture of achievement, discovery and peer leadership.
  • Opportunities for girls to learn leadership skills are more plentiful at all-girl schools.
  • Graduates of girls' schools and/or women's colleges account for a third of female board members of Fortune 500 companies and 25% of female members of Congress.
  • Girls at single-sex schools surpass their co-ed peers in reading, writing and science. They also demonstrate higher educational aspirations, spend more time on homework and are more likely to aspire to careers in engineering and science. 
  • 84 percent of all-girl school graduates felt they were better prepared for college writing assignments than their co-ed peers.
  • All leadership roles at all-girl schools are taken by girls.
  • When girls go to single-sex schools, they stop being the audience and become the players.
  • At girls' schools, every girl learns to take on academic challenges, express her thoughts and opinions and participate in new learning experiences.
  • "As a college professor, I could identify students from girls' schools with a 90 percent accuracy rate on the first day of class. They were the young women whose hands shot up in the air, who were not afraid to defend their positions, and who assumed that I would be interested in their perspectives." - Robin Robertson, Ph.D.
  • Educators at all-girl schools capitalize on girls' unique learning styles.
  • During the key adolescent years [12-16], single-sex settings better accommodate the developmental needs of students."
