School Reform Blocked in Massachusetts

Well, when you are a little Zionist laboratory for brainwashing, this is to be expected.

"Massachusetts is one of a handful of states where single-gender public schools are considered illegal.... state law does allow a public school to split its male and female students into separate classes - so long as the programs are of equal quality.... Single-gender schools also have their critics.... the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts"

So what is more important, readers?

I thought education was all about the WELFARE of OUR KIDS!

"School revamp hits a snag; Single-sex center may be illegal" by James Vaznis, Globe Staff | October 29, 2008

One of the most eye-catching elements of Boston School Superintendent Carol R. Johnson's reorganization plan - the creation of two single-gender academies - seems to have just one problem: They appear to be illegal in Massachusetts.

Public schools cannot deny a student admission based on gender under state law, which could prevent Boston from trying a strategy that has been gaining momentum in other cities nationwide and that advocates say leads to much higher rates of learning.

Yeah, and we wouldn't want our kids LEARNING anything, would we?

The problem could lead to one of several possible changes to the reorganization plan, which Johnson is scheduled to revisit with the School Committee tonight after passionate objections were raised by many parents, students, and teachers who do not want their schools to close.

The School Committee requested more details on the plan to close about a dozen schools, which would leave five buildings empty while the others would be used to house new schools or expand popular ones. As part of that plan, Johnson called for closing the Wilson Middle School in Dorchester, which has a poor academic record, and replacing it with a Young Women's Leadership Academy, serving grades 6 through 12.

She also pitched a Young Men's Public Service Academy at a yet-to-be-identified location to help prepare boys for careers as police officers, firefighters, and emergency medical technicians - areas in which women have won hard-fought battles for equal employment rights. It is not yet known what programs will be offered at the women's academy.

Don't worry; we got a DRAFT ready for YOU GUYS (and gals)!!!!

Massachusetts is one of a handful of states where single-gender public schools are considered illegal, according to the National Association for Single Sex Public Education, an advocacy group. While single-gender public schools in Massachusetts remain questionable, state law does allow a public school to split its male and female students into separate classes - so long as the programs are of equal quality.

Johnson sees single-gender education programs as one possible remedy to an achievement gap between the sexes. Female students have been notably outpacing males, particularly those who are black or Latino, on standardized tests, graduation rates, and attendance.

So WOMEN are SMARTER!!!!!!

The superintendent is following the lead of several school districts nationwide that have turned to single-gender schools to boost student achievement. Two years ago, the US Department of Education loosened Title 9 rules, adopted decades ago to ensure equal opportunities for female students, to ease the opening of single-gender schools.

One of the movement's leaders has been the Detroit public schools. The city's International Academy for Young Women has grown from a few dozen students three years ago to more than 500. "When girls and boys are separated, you lose the silliness," said Beverly Hibbler, the school's principal and founder. "The girls no longer are trying to impress the boys, and the boys are not trying to impress the girls."

And WHO would want to continue to promote the DUMBING DOWN and SILLINESS of AmeriKa's youth?

Single-gender schools also have their critics. Sarah Wunsch, staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts, not only questions their legality but said she believes they are a waste of money, based on research she has seen indicating no academic improvement.

"This is not the time to be doing this experiment in Boston," Wunsch said. "Kids need to learn to work with students of different gender, religion, national origin and race." --more--"

Yeah, unless they are Israeli or Jewish no doubt!!!
