This is a link to my hometown's local newspaper. Lancaster county is considering offering single gender classes to its students. About 90 school districts in our state are experimenting with the single gender classrooms and have found the results to be positive for learning. I think that it is interesting that schools are trying this method for teaching and that the results have found that boys and girls respond so differently to types of learning. I am not exactly sure I agree with it for all subjects but if it helps children learn better than I support it.
