Same Gender Schools

Gender has always been a starting point for much of the judgement in our society whether we realize it or not, and it’s exactly the causes of one of the many controversies that there is today. Title IX, the law passed to help overcome prejudice and grant girls the same opportunities as boys, is getting not only the credit it deserves but much backlash to counter it. The main purpose of this law was originally to give girls the opportunity to play the same sports as boys were able to, and thanks to the law girls are now given these opportunities to play sports in addition to also give many transgender students more rights within the schools than ever before. Even with all these steps forward in society, there are still those who believe

Also, if less kids come more schools might shut down. Teachers might lose money and their jobs. BAD, BAD, BAD. I am so good at this. Ok about the lost jobs, they might

Imagine that you were in a classroom full of your gender how would you feel? Well, if you feel that you're not ok with that well, In school year 2004-05 122 public schools offered single sex classes and 34 public schools were single sex classes mandatory according to “Old Tactic Gets New Use: Public Schools Separate Boys and Girls.” Article. Close to 70% of kids in single sex classes raised their math and reading scores in “Old Tactic Gets New Use: Public Schools Separate Boys and Girls.” Article. Although this may seem bad and shouldn't happen it's really not. Kids in single sex classes will have more of a chance to succeed than students in non single sex class because of most kids have no problem with this in their school, less discipline, and most of all higher grades.

Gender equality in schools has been a controversial issue over the years. In these two articles, "The Daily Grind: Lessons in the Hidden Curriculum" of Peggy Orenstein, and "Boys Here, Girls There: Sure, if Equality's the Goal" of Karen Stabiner, both writers give an in-depth reality into the contentious issues that exist between boys and girls. Although they bear some superficial similarities in discussing gender parity problem in education, the differences between Orenstein and Stabiner are the target audience, the rhetorical choices, and their opinion on the gender equality issue.

Overpopulation is an issue that many persons fail to bring attention, but don’t know the underlying effects that it can have on the United States itself. The hardships of overpopulation, affects the economy, the available of resources, and also the success of the future generations to come. Without much thought, someone may have children not knowing that it can affect the livelihood of the future generations who plan to land that job or that position they were aspiring to get. There are those individuals that continue having children, knowing that they are not financially capable of supporting another innocent child. In result this negatively affects the quality of living. If there are more births, it foreshadows that there are more jobs to be created, which causes employment hard to acquire, nevertheless, causing the economy to make a turn for the

There are three common arguments against allowing a child to define their gender. The first common argument is that the child will bullied and may not be mature enough to handle it. Unfortunately, children can be bullied for a number of reasons regardless of their gender. Parents do not allow bullying to affect other decisions and they should not allow bullying to interfere with who their child wants to be either. It is he one doing the bullying that has a problem, not their child.

Separating them was one of the best decisions I made as superintendent of Taylor County. It really allowed some time for boys to be boys and girls to be girls before they would have to be around each other all day. But even more important than that it allowed some time for parents to realize that the times were changing and their kids were going to have to go school with people of the opposite race. Eventually, most people accepted it and the schools are still that way

The United States Senate has decided that students in public schools will now be separated by birth sex. This means that lockers, lunch, large school time functions will all greatly change because they will now be separated by birth sex. There is no word about the reason why yet.

In more recent years, our educational system has faced challenges that are leading our country back into segregation. Single-sex education has resurfaced; jeopardizing the gains our ancestors fought so hard for. A few people believe that the biological make-up between genders is significantly different, that having coeducational classes is doing more harm than good. Conversely, there is no proven study that supports these claims; however studies have displayed the exact opposite. Separating genders within the educational system will only perpetuate and magnify

In today’s society, education has become a very important factor in a student 's life. Everyone tries to do and implement whatever is best for the student to learn and become successful. Therefore, as a result, society tries to separate schools based on gender. Schools should be separated by gender for many reasons. The first reason is that gender separation will help eliminate bullying. It has been demonstrated that boys, in general, tend to be more rude and violent than girls causing the boys to “bully” girls. Another reason they should be separated is to help break down stereotypes. An example of this is that girls are free of the pressure to compete with boys in male dominated subjects such as math and science. Another reason they should be separated is that it makes it easier on the teacher to use different learning techniques that are geared toward specific genders. It is a great idea to separate students by gender at schools if they want the students to have a better education. This will help prevent bullying at schools, help breakdown stereotypes, and encourage teachers to use different educational techniques.

Although, most of the people in the United States that undergo gender selection, choose girls, a large amount of people who come from Asian or Caucasian descent, choose boys. America is one of the few countries that actually allow gender selection; Canada, the UK, and Australia are just some of the few that have banned it. When people choose a gender, they expect a certain stereotypical role to follow. This reinforces constricting and false gender roles. Girls do not always dress in pink and boys do not always like baseball and trucks. “Do we really want to allow parents to thrall to gender stereotypes to engineer their children for the sole purpose of meeting ephemeral and superficial cultural norms?” (Dollar). If someone goes through so much money and effort to choose a child of a certain gender, they are supporting stereotypes that are damaging to both girls and boys. What happens when you get a girl who does not do all the girly things you were hoping? Or your boy does not like to play sports or get dirty? You can not give them

Do u want your children to be seperated just because of their gender, I know i wouldn't because I think that that's just wrong. I just don't get why people would let certain schools do that it's just wrong, at least in my opinion it is. I don't like people that think its ok to separate kids just because of their gender.

Same-Sex education harms children more than it helps students because students lose their collaboration skills with the opposite sex that is desperately needed later in life. Although single sex education may help break down stereotypes, schools should stick to coed because few educators are properly trained in gender specific teaching, gender differences in learning aren’t the same all around, and kids need to learn to coexist and work with the other sex.

Does your child’s education matter to you? I believe single sex schools are better than co-education schools. My reasons behind this opinion are single sex schooling has less distraction in class, single sex schools have better learning results and lastly boys and girls in a same sex environment are more likely to pursue subjects they usually would not try.

I firmly believe that it is the parent’s responsibility to be the primary educator and caregiver to a child. As such, parents ought to know what is taught in school regarding gender identity, and be able to opt their children out of classes with which they disagree with based on their views; whether they be scientific, religious, or based on personal experience.
