All Boys School

            All-girls schools have been gaining popularity in recent years because of the belief that girls learn better when they aren't competing with or intimidated by boys, who statistically get more attention in the classroom. Do you think single-sex schools are a good idea? Why or Why not?
           
            Aren't we all sick of it? The drop outs, fights, sex, lack of focus, lost of interesting school, and behavioral problems custodians complain about. We already have boys schools, and similar to girls schools, guys may focus more and be less distracted by the opposite sex. I say yes to an all-boys school. It may give boys the time they need to actually worry about themselves and get serious about their learning.
            The advantage is tremendous, the in which boys who do go to an all-boy school is greater compared to those who do not. It keeps them focused because mainly it is their hormones that are not yet tamed, and they mature slower than girls. Being surrounded by the same sex will turn boys off and keep them focused on understanding concepts and keeping their grades up. Not to mention, they will have time to focus on their career, rather than worry about their girlfriends needs all the time. Most boys reject all-buys school because they fear being surrounded by homosexuals. Heavens no, boys! You will not turn gay, you have to be born that way.      
            Boys have a higher drop-out rate than girls because they fall behind in their grades and soon lose interest in the school. However, if we send a potential drop out to an all-boys school, things will turn out well. Take our imaginary friend Andy, for example. His dropout rate would not be as high if he was surrounded by the similar sex, therefore he would feel some sort of connection and will feel comfortable around them—sort of like family. Additionally, by surrounding himself with different boys he could learn a thing or two from them.
            An all-boys school may have more to offer, than an ordinary school. Since, all of its programs are direct towards young men, boys will have a variety of  interest they can partake in. Usually in ordinary schools, boys feel pressured to involve themselves in masculine activities because of the presence of the opposite sex. As a result, boys would not feel ashamed of doing what they please. Also, boys can learn at their own pace because their brains develop slower than girls; they will not feel the need to speed up since they're surrounded by boys of the same development capacity.
            Ultimately, I feel that an all-boys school is a smashing idea. It has much to offer to the young men and will even help them grow mentally and emotionally. Also, it will take a load of their backs from all the pressure of having to act according to their sex. States should have more same sex schools, that way America will produce a new generation of profound individuals.
