This article is about a school where fifth graders ,boys and girls are separeted in their classrooms. Major, Blomberg gave freedom to the Principals to create single-sex classrooms. Some teachers and parents think that this new change has been helping to the children in term of behavior and academic development.

  1. I think that if it is work then it is a good thing. However, I do not think that all the classes should be single-sex. Children go through puberty earlier, especially for girls. Sometime children get distracted by the opposite sex.

  2. Well, I think whatever works in the educational system should be encouraged to foster learning of students.However, segregation at the Elementary Level should be looked into. I would recommend it for older students.
