Because boys learn differently
Many think of all boys schools as a tradition, but Princeton Academy is a school for boys by design.
A growing body of research shows that boys learn and develop differently from girls and that single gender programs are more educationally effective than coeducational ones. We at Princeton Academy have embraced these findings to create the best school for boys in the Princeton area. From major decisions about the design and operation of the school to small everyday details of running a classroom, we have created a culture that is always asking: What is best for boys?
Important decisions and actions in response have included:
- Decision to educate only boys
- Selection and training of our faculty
- Design of our curriculum
- Methods of teaching
- Design of the school’s physical environment
The results of this quest to design and run the best school for boys have become clear. Walk the halls and you will see boys thoroughly engaged in their education. Princeton Academy is truly the school where boys thrive.
