Why would a young woman choose to attend
an all-girl school?
After all, life beyond high school certainly is
co-ed. Undoubtedly, young women in our society will be faced with
future college, post-graduate, and career experiences that are
indeed co-ed, and for this very reason there is an enormous value to
be found in an all-girl secondary education. Although it may seem
contradictory, the environment provided by an all-girl school can be
exactly what a young woman needs in order to face her future with
the confidence, knowledge, and skills needed to succeed in today’s
society.
Regina High School strives to provide an
environment that empowers young women, encourages their intellectual
curiosity, and fosters active participation in their learning
process. The individual talents and accomplishments of each young
woman are celebrated and the community atmosphere enhances each
student’s connectedness to their education, teachers, peers, and to
the greater community.

In an all-girl setting, many of the social
pressures placed on adolescent girls are removed. This provides an
incredibly safe environment where girls can take risks, try new
things, and discover for themselves just where their strengths and
passions lie.
As an all-girl school, we live a statement made
by Professors Myra and David Sadker of the American University :
“When girls go to single-sex schools, they stop
being the audience and become the players.”
