how to control body movement and posture is very important for girls. No matter what kind of dance she'll do later, women's dance should always express a sense of grace, ballet is the best way to teach that among all the dances they offer in a regular dance studio.
She doesn't have to go on pointe when takes ballet classes, also she can take 1 or 2 other kinds of dance(like hip pop, jazz, contemporary, tap or modern dances) of her choice. She should stick to ballet until reaches to an intermediate level.
