Single Sex Schools

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.

It might sound a little crazy but some student work better when working around the same sex.  In the article “ A Right To Chose Single Sex Education” Hutchison and Mikulski are fighting for the right to have schools with the same gender. This article is for students and teachers to few different option for the education environment. Which is why it compares to “ Kewauna’s Ambition” because how the writer are specifying on the environment. Hutchison and Mikulski argue that there is no harm in having school with the same gender it's voluntary and would be beneficial for the one that join. However many don’t agree and say that gender is not reason for lost of focus that it’s completely in a student's mind. Which is why is differs from the other

In spite of, we can not ignore the fact that children constantly interact with members of the opposite sex outside school. From playing and squabbling with siblings to negotiate allowances, chores and privilege with their opposite sex parent, children learn and practice on a daily basis the skills they will need in the future. Furthermore, children are subjected to an avalanche of pressure from the other sex and from every quarter to become adults before they are ready to do so. They grow up too quickly. Why not let them be children for a few more years? Single sex education with its gentler, more controlled social outlets is just the ticket for many children. Meanwhile, at many coed schools, it is not "cool" for kids to be excited about school. The game of who likes who, who is going out with who, who is cool and who is not, is what is really important at most coed schools. That is seldom the case at single-sex schools.

Although separating male and female student might help concentration, students should not be separated based on gender because, separation would cost a lot of money, a new building, new staff, new bus drivers, new everything. Utilities would be the main cost increase. Bullying is much more common in boy-only or girl-only schools. Social interaction is also very important in schools, although it can be distracting in class, social interactions between male and female students are very important.

Also the reason I chose devastating is because if their parents did not know about the single gendered schools than their parents would have a fit because the schools never told them about what was going on.Also if the parents kids go to separate schools and are car

Imagine a classroom where there is only boys and not a single girl pretty weird, right? Well it may be a solution to some problems. Keep reading to find out more. Reason 1: Boys & Girls Learn Differently

Streitmatter found in his research that: “…the girls in a single-sex classroom had the sense of ownership of their class…” (Stretimatter 2002). Based on Streitmatter results it can also be question what would happened with the behavior of those girls once they get to a mixed environment? Will they perform the same with the male presence? They are not getting the change of knowing how to perform at whatever situation.

Public schools are wonderful, they are meant for everyone, and anyone can attend them no matter who you are, where you come from, or how you look like. We all learn together, play together, and experience together. At public schools nobody gets left behind, because we all look out for eachother. Everyone is welcome at all public schools! Well with the exception of that one… and you can’t attend that one either…oh and that one too, … we can’t forget that one… oh that’s right you are a boy so you can’t go to that school that happens to be way closer than the other one! Single- sex schools: enforcing stereotypes and allowing segregation since the moment they were created, and now public schools want to stop mixed education in hopes it will increase

I believe there would be many more dramatic situations in a single gender classroom. If you have a classroom filled with females, they are less likely to find a compromise in an argument; therefore, making the classroom more disruptive. Furthermore, indirectly bullying another female, will also add more tension to the classroom; making the classroom more distracting. These action will ultimately lead to an unacceptable learning environment.

Boys and girls learn in two different ways. This reason is why having a single sex school is more rewarding than a co-ed school. According to Dr. Schlosser of Breckinridge County Middle School's (Kentucky) the difference between the way boys and girls learn are the type of weather boys and girls prefer.) Boys prefer to learn in a cool, dark room. When there are two different people wanting two different things its hard to please both sides. Boys also learn much slower than what girls learn, this could be a problem for girls in the same class as boys for girls would learn and to move on, but would have to cut back their learning to wait for the boys to learn the same material. Boys also are interested in different subjects than what girls like. Boys are most secretly interested in music, science, and math. According to GreatSchools.com says boys feel girls won’t like them when they know they are interested in other things such as music and math and not baseball, football, and soccer. Many boys won’t show interest in music in a co-ed school. When boys are placed in a single sex school they won’t have the feeling of impressing girls so more boys will show their interest in arts and music. Boys are much better with math and science than what girls are says NASSPE VIII. NASSPE Vlll is single-sex school out of Huston Texas. "The most profound difference between girls and boys is in any brain structure per se, but also in the sequence of

Not only are the students more focused in the classrooms with single-sex classrooms, but they also feel more comfortable with each other and aren't very concerned with the way they look. They don't need to be worrying about impressing anyone because everyone there is of the same gender so it would be a waste of their time if they tried to impress one another. It is common for them to be able to go

A second example to help argue my point is when United Kingdom educator Graham Able compared student performance in 30 single-sex and co-educational schools, he found the academic advantage of single-sex schooling even greater for boys. This evidence shows that single sex is the better school option for learning and getter better academic results, especially if your child is a boy. Single sex schooling is the better choice when selecting your child’s future school specially when you are looking for the best possible education.

Single-gender schools are not proven to be more academically successful. "Single-gender education does not educate girls and boys any better than co-ed schools, according to research published by the American Psychological Association analyzing 184 studies of more than 1.6 million students from around the world," (Single-sex). Having single-gender schools will not change the way student, learn and do work. "Based on my experience, I don’t think it makes much of a long-term difference whether boys and girls go to school together," said Brooke Tasovac who has gone to a single-gender school before, (Tasovac). Co-ed schools make big differences, unlike

Single-sex schools have proven to be effective according to many researchers. Janice Streitmatter, a researcher, shows a research where students who attended single-sex schools always score higher in their exams than students who attend coed schools. In another research she explains the outcomes on

To begin with, single sex school have a more relaxed environment than coeducational school because boys and girls do not need to worry about impressing the other gender. They can be themselves in class and they can speak openly. On the other hand, the student in single sex school are usually more confident because they do not afraid falling on their face in front of the other
