*If test scores go up great
*But now this gives both sexes less time to be able to communicate with each other, hmmmm that aint right

*Warning*- don't get all misogynistic in this thread. Sexism will be interpreted the same as racism on here.

Bah, my post was sarcastic in nature.
I think its just more of teaching to pass a test at the end of the year, not teaching kids to learn on their own.
So fail.

I know the sarcasm, and I know what you were going for. I'm just trying to steer away from the typical men vs women deal. Both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. I think the gender segregation may be good for learning and test scores but may have some social implications.

Well most catholic schools are single gender, I won't get into the religious nonsense part, but they usually score higher on standardized tests than public schools. Granted that is a far stretch at comparisons.. but still.

Catholic schools are awful at any type of special ed (many don't even have it) and the higher score thing is hit or miss. I know people who had to repeat a grade because they did not get a good enough education at Catholic school, where they got great grades.

Well there is a very fine line between not stepping on any ones toes but at the same time providing a good education at a public school.
Most schools are damned if they do, damned if they don't when it comes to providing the right classes to the right kids.

Yeah, I heard about this.
While I dont think either side is smarter then the other, we learn in different ways.
Say its a few millenia of evolution that has taught us to be different and learn different.
Not that its good or bad, but I think its a good deal. Sure there will be huge uproar, but its worth a test.
