[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have girls at a coed Catholic high school with tough exams and grading. They tell me that honors classes at their high school have a lot more girls than boys in them. (The school general population is 50% girls and 50% boys.) I once asked why and their take on it was that boys spend a lot more time playing sports than studying. [/quote] Interesting. I wonder if our kids are at the same school? FWIW, my son commented that the girls tend to have the highest grades in all the classes. But some/many of these girls are also athletes or heavily involved in extracurriculars. And I know some boys who are athletes and they have excellent grades. (My kid is an A/B student and an athlete.) PS - I believe at least 2 of the teachers are subpar and aren’t adequately teaching, and most kids aren’t equipped to teach themselves certain content. [/quote]
