Shealeigh, You ARE the one that typed this statement, “My son has made worse grades and been picked on more this year.  Last year he had females in his classes.  He did better because he didn’t want to “LOOK DUMB” in front of the females.”  So he WANTED to look dumb in front of the boys?  So one would be led to believe if they are teaching the same thing in coed and single sex classes, the grades should stay the same.  Having the opposite sex in the class has nothing to do with you sons learning ability, he should be able learn the same with or without girls in the class

JohnQ…my son is very smart and tries really hard.  We study at night when he comes home from school.  Thanks though for your opinion, we all know what they say about opinions though…and just to let you know what I think about yours is it stinks.

Sunndew, the ACLU and NAACP are not trying to make a better school system, they are attempting to destroy the U.S. as we know it, by way of the public school system.

KxVicious, read the story. Your statement, phrased as a question is,
“Children are worried about the opposite sex in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL?? These kids are under the age of 11!!” “
They only are targeting the MIDDLE school. But they have to comply with the law in the elementary schools also because of the MIDDLE School. The kids and parents in the middle school fought this, not the elementary school.

JohnQ, read the story:

“Mobile has single-sex classes at three other elementary schools
and Clark magnet school.”

If the boy’s and girls are separated there will be more participation.Than again, I don’t believe the school should under any circumstances be involved in teaching our children anything about sex,this is the parents responsibility only.The only thing that needs to change here is the ACLU,this organization costs tax payers millions of dollars each year in court costs,when they ask judges to reward them with all money they have wasted on stupid cases like this.

Well, for one… When people first started in school so long ago… Girls were not allowed to go to school… So think long and hard before you say ” Thank God someone has taken the steps of getting the classes back the way GOD intended them to be. ”  The only ones allowed to go to school were the boys.. and that was in a lot of countries… and still in some countries women are still not equals.

“My son has made worse grades and been picked on more this year.  Last year he had females in his classes.  He did better because he didn’t want to “LOOK DUMB” in front of the females.”
I would take this as your son was lazy and didn’t try, should not matter what sex is in the class, you still learn the same thing.

Didn’t know GOD intended the classes at all.

Kx, read the story, then post.
