are same-sex classrooms unlawful?

I agree

If you've never been to a same sex school, a good one, then you really don't know what you're talking about.

Using teaching strategies based on gender seems...wrongheaded.  Humans are not binary.  Learning is a lot more individual and complex than that.  I'm glad there's an education movement to address it.  There are other reasons people may prefer single sex schools, but I've never been a fan.  Still, it's their personal preference.        

I never went to an all girls school. However I could see how it could benefit children.

I think it does bc they're creating an environment where they're saying "you're a girl. This is how you should learn"...what if the girl thrives more by the technique used in the all boy class room? How will she feel to know she doesn't fit into what they've now deemed the norm?

What the ACLU is fighting against in that article and single-sex education in general are two separate issues. It would be nice if we did a little better with the titles/topics and the content of the OP because people are clearly responding to the title and not the content of the article.
