Challenging Stereotypes
Boys’ schools exist to celebrate and affirm boys at every stage of their lives, and to help them understand the myriad ways that healthy masculinity is expressed. They help challenge societal boundaries (good or bad) that hinder a boy’s ability to live an authentic life of purpose.
Intentional and Research Based
Good boys’ schools are intentional in their programs and research-based in their pedagogy. Innovation in its curriculum goes beyond what a boy learns to interrogate how he learns. At Browning, we use data to drive academic decisions that align with our mission, and collaborate with universities that are doing cutting-edge research on boys.
Expansive expectations
Boys in all-boys schools are not bound by narrow or outdated ideas about how boys behave or what they value. The freedom that boys are able to gain in these schools allows them to experience more meaningful relationships and have more agency in their education.
