[quote=Anonymous] I have kids at St. Andrew's and have never heard anything like planning for a gender gap. In fact, I've seen administrators work hard to try to make sure things are even. although I will admit that it seems like the girls coaches don't write as many news stories as their counterparts for the boys teams. I'm not claiming the school to be a sports powerhouse for girls or boys -- nor that it is really aspiring to be one on the level of Prep, for instance -- but they are making healthy strides forward with both girls and boys and the girls have been very competitive in some sports. Obviously that varies a bit from year to year in a small school, but they have had some girls play college ball in soccer, lacross, basketball,and on other teams. I think the boys basketball team has just gotten more press this year because they had an unusually strong year and some of their strongest players are underclassmen so they should be competitive for some time. The middle school actually has some strong female athletes who will be moving up in quite a few sports next year also. [/quote]
