Why Choose a Boys' School?
Schools that make the intentional choice to focus on the intellectual, physical, social, and emotional lives of boys and young men share an appreciation for the intensity and complexity of boyhood. Educators at boys’ schools celebrate and value all that it means to be a boy.”
The International Boys’ Schools Coalition
Our vision is to serve the needs of boys in our diverse city, meeting their needs and their family's needs through the Goals of Sacred Heart education.
A growing body of research shows that boys learn and develop differently from girls and that single-gender programs are more educationally effective for boys than coeducational ones. At Regis, we have embraced the benefits of all-boy schools to create the best private school for boys in Houston, Texas. From major decisions about the design and operation of the school to small everyday details of running a classroom—our focus is always on what is best for boys.
Boys can be sportsmen, academics, hard workers or a combination of the three. Regis
scholars and gentlemen
always have a commonality though—any school can produce athletes and high academic achievers, Regis produces men of character.
Lessons Focus on How Boys Learn Best
Boys Can Avoid Stereotypical Social Pressure
Co-Curricular Options Provide Non-Traditional Experiences
Boys Learn Appropriate Social Skills
A Strong Sense of Camaraderie
Research has shown that boys learn differently than girls. A school that caters specifically to boys recognizes that young men have unique needs. For example, Regis teachers understand that the students need frequent movement and a hands-on approach. Our teachers continue to be trained in the best ways to meet the needs of young men.
In a boys’ school, students are allowed to mature at an appropriate pace. Young men gain confidence without the distraction of girls. Regis boys can just “be boys” and develop individually.
Boys are exposed to activities that break down society’s stereotypes. Programs in a boys’ school nurture all areas of talent for young men. Regis students participate in art,
athletics
, choir, and other co-curricular activities suited to their individual gifts.
Teachers of boys understand the need to emphasize effective communication skills. Male faculty members provide models of appropriate behavior for our students. As a result, the young men of Regis learn to be gentlemen as well as scholars.
Young men in a boys’ school form strong bonds with their peers. In addition, multi-age level activities build a sense of community. This creates a foundation for Regis boys to forge life-long friendships beyond the classroom.
