| Abstract | Single-sex schools and classrooms have long existed in educational institutions such as religious, private, and preparatory schools, particularly in the United Kingdom. Single-sex education describes a diverse range of situations, including individual classes, programs after school, required programs, voluntary programs, and programs to remedy gender inequities and encourage cultural and racial pride. Therefore, the topic of single-sex classrooms resists most generalizations (AAUW, 1998). Most research in the U.S. has involved private girls’ schools or Catholic schools. There has been less experimentation with same-sex education since the 1970s, when same-sex public schooling became prohibited for most situations by federal law. |
