I think there are definately pros and cons to it.

I'd only be in favor of this if, as in the article, it were done voluntarily and the district's residents were OK with this.

I think boys & girls learn different so if it was voluntary I think it would be a good idea for math expecially at the MS/HS level. The girls wouldn't be so self conscious around the boys & maybe ask more questions.

I went to an all girls high school for my first two years and then we moved and had to go to a co-ed one. I much preferred the all girls one for a number of reasons. If I have the opportunity, I will send Katie to one (she's only 3 right now).
