Is Your Family Catholic? 3 Benefits Of Sending Your Daughter To An All Girl's Catholic School
If you are a catholic and have a daughter, you should consider sending her to an all girl's catholic school. There are many benefits of this type of school, three of which are listed below.
Less Distractions
Boys can be a big distraction to young women, which can affect their studies. There are also a lot of dances at many schools, which can be a distraction.
Instead of focusing on boys your daughter will then focus more on their studies and their teachers. Your daughter would be much less focused on their looks as there would not be any boys they want to impress. This can also be beneficial for all girls as some girls would be more popular with the boys than others, which can cause conflict between girls. Your daughter may not even wear as much make up or wear any make up at all because there are only girls.
This will also help your daughter focus on their Catholic faith, as the school likely has classes in this area.
Wear Uniforms
Most catholic schools require girls to wear uniforms, which is generally a shirt and a skirt. All the uniforms look the same. This can be beneficial in that your daughter would not have to worry wearing popular clothing that other girls wear. Children may not enjoy this at all, but over time they may see the many benefits this can offer.
Even though Catholic uniforms will cost you money upfront, over time you will save a great deal of money. This is because other types of school clothing will result in your spending much more money. Your child would also not take near as much time getting dressed each morning as they would not have to worry about picking out their clothes. This would result in your child getting more sleep, which is beneficial.
You would have to purchase more than one uniform, and, in many cases, you would purchase at least three to five. This would prevent you from having to wash your daughter's uniform as much, which would save you time.
Talk to several all girl Catholic schools in your area. Each school may be a little different but most of them will have the same Catholic values. Take your daughter with you when you visit the schools to see if they feel comfortable. You can ask to take a tour of the schools that you visit.
