This 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).
