I had a double helping of guys only schools. I was in a Jesuit Prep School in the US for Pre-freshman, freshman, and senior year and two years at a British Public School (thats Brit Speak for private boarding school) while my dad was stationed over there. Both schools were demanding, disciplined, and really great experiences. Social life was not bad as both schools arranged a lot of mixers. In the US there were plenty girls schools who also had mixers so we could count on activities every week ranging from dances, to field days, to joint activities like drama, debate, and non-contact sports like rowing, etc. In the UK it was a little more cloistered but with reasonable free time in the afternoons/early evenings and plenty of structured activities.
Anybody else have memories of British school experiences? I remember a similar thread a few months ago but it died before it really got started. Please join in and share thoughts.
