Galen Sherwin for the New York Times: “The education crisis has led schools to search for ways to improve educational outcomes, particularly for disadvantaged students. Unfortunately, this has led many schools to turn to sex segregation. These programs are often mere gimmicks that give administrators a splashy way to show they’re doing something — even if it fails to produce results. However, emerging evidence raises serious questions not only about their legality, but also about whether they do more harm than good.”
