Dear Reader, Twelve years ago, three mothers met for coffee to talk about starting a girls' school. Motivated by a conviction that girls' schools are good for girls, encouraged by recent research that bolstered that belief, and blinded by ignorant optimism, we opened our school in three rented rooms and a public park. We had a clear mission: educating girls—all kinds of girls from all kinds of backgrounds—in the ways they learn best. We immediately got into trouble. Eventually, we survived, the girls thrived, and the pioneer graduating classes won awards and scholarships and admission to every prestigious university in the country. In its tenth year, our school has 500 students on a beautiful seven-acre campus, a championship debate team, accomplished artists, a respected, nationally-known robotics team, even a winning tennis team. LEARNING LIKE A GIRL is our story. Do you have a story of your own or about someone you know thriving in a girl-centric environment? If you do, I would love to hear it. Send it to me at author@learninglikeagirl.com and you could win a copy of the book! Thanks for reading, Diana www.learninglikeagirl.com |
