I always though Phillips Andover was an all-boys school. Who knew? I wonder if it's always been like that.

She went for one year, her senior year, which was the first year Phillips went co-ed.

'She went for one year, her senior year, which was the first year Phillips went co-ed."

Thanks. She's right around my age, which means she was there sometime in the early-mid'70s. I'm surprised it's been coed that long. I looked it up, and Exeter is also coed now. I thought that was all-boys.

For whatever reason, many of the prestigious all-boys schools transitioned to coed. But, many of the all-girls schools haven't. It's strange.
