Why an All-Girls School?
Research shows that girls thrive in an all-girls’ environment. Classrooms are not dominated by boys, as they often are in coed schools. And by holding all the student leadership positions, girls learn the important lessons and the considerable rewards of leading. At Salem Academy, for more than two centuries, we have encouraged, challenged, and supported young women as they grow to fulfill their immense potential. The National Coalition of Girls’ Schools (NCGS) conducts regular surveys of alumnae from its member schools. Recent research continues to confirm the relevance and importance of an all girl educational setting.
