What Parents and Teachers Need to Know about the Emerging Science of Sex Differences
by Leonard SaxThis article relates to Why Gender Matters
Sax is the founder of the National
Association for Single-Sex Public Education - the NASSPE website is
extremely comprehensive and contains much of the same information as his book.
Eight years ago, only four public schools in the United
States offered single-sex educational opportunities. As of January 2006, at
least 211 public schools in the United States are offering gender-separate
educational opportunities. Most of those are coeducational schools with all or
some of their classrooms run on a single-sex basis, but 44 are completely
single-sex (see
the list).
