Girls’ schools educate girls to become global changemakers—the women we need to help solve the world’s biggest challenges.

Young women at girls’ schools are inspired to become informed, engaged global citizens who lead with courage, competence, and empathy. Research has proven girls’ school graduates display stronger community involvement, greater cultural competency, and increased political engagement.

In comparison to their coeducated peers, young women who attend girls’ schools are more likely to:

become involved in environmental programs
deem it essential to participate in community social action programs
be frequently active in volunteer work
help promote racial understanding
value improving their understanding of other countries and cultures
count their desire to understand others with different beliefs as a strength
view their ability to work cooperatively with diverse people as a strength
discuss politics with friends
plan to vote in elections
value keeping up with political affairs
value influencing political structures
publicly communicate their opinion about a cause
