I agree with Popcornbird. I too would prefer a girls-only school over a mixed.

Funny - my mother always said she thought I would have done much better in an all-girls school, because I wouldn't have spent any time worrying about boys - I would have concentrated on my schoolwork! I think there might be some truth to that; after all, who are the girls dressing up so much for, and who are the boys trying to impress? Girls wouldn't have to worry so much about their appearance or clothes, and wouldn't be able to rip on each other about who does/doesn't get attention from boys. They could just relax and be themselves and dress comfortably.
As far as the smoking inside the school building, what about the Clean Indoor Air Act (or whatever it's called)? If smoking in the building is ILLEGAL, and I'm sure it is, and it's aggravating Kayann's breathing problems, maybe it's time to take some legal action against the school to make them face up to the problem. You can't have your health be compromised by needing to use the restroom in school.
I do drink, and it is legal, if you parents give it to you and you stay home, but when I do its just a sip, or half a wine cooler. -I disagree with this; underage drinking is NOT legal, and parents have been busted for providing their own kids and others with alcohol at parties. I understand that kids will drink, especially when they turn the legal drinking age, but why would a parent want to encourage it, or make it seem OK? My daughter isn't getting a drop of alcohol from me; that's a decision she will have to make on her own when she's of age. I wouldn't consider giving her a puff of a cigarette appropriate, or handing her a condom and telling her to "have fun", so why would I provide her with alcohol and say go ahead? Some things are supposed to wait until you are an adult. You may start out with just half a wine cooler, but you never know whether you're predisposed to alcoholism, so why take the chance? Just my soapbox opinion there........;)
OMG!! I would die!! I have WAY more guy friends the girl freinds!! I find that alot of girls in my school are very snobby, and really dont like you to mingle between cliques, and the guys aint like that.Quote:
