Catholic Schools Week 2016

St. Saviour HS, Park Slope

Confidence, Creativity and Sisterhood

Why Choose an All-Girls School?

According to a 2009 UCLA study, young women who attend all-girls high schools demonstrate:

• greater confidence in math, computer and writing abilities.

• 30 percent higher SAT scores in reading, writing and math.

• greater political engagement and interest in engineering careers.

• self-confidence in public speaking, and greater likelihood of engaging in extracurricular activities.

• a higher realization that college is a stepping-stone to graduate school.

• a lower tendency to think in terms of “girl-subjects” and to fit traditional stereotypes.

“There is a spontaneity, a synergy, an emotional security, and a sense of community that seem to flow out of shared experiences and common purposes as young women. What I saw and what I heard from students, parents, staff and alumnae was that these schools are safe harbors where girls can securely weather the storms of adolescence while nurturing their spirit and intellect.” – Rosemary Salomone ’64, author of: Same, Different, Equal: Rethinking Single-Sex schooling (Harvard University Press, 2010)
