[quote=Anonymous]People picking on schools are missing the point. Schools have made enormous changes to try to be accommodating to both genders and to different learning styles, and yet, performance among boys has continued to decline. The article discussed sports, and how boys are measured by their performance in athletics instead of academics. Also, just anecdotally, it’s not considered “cool” for boys to be smart. Boys at private schools probably do better because it’s a safe environment where everyone is encouraged and allowed (by their peer group) to perform well academically. [/quote]
