| Popis: | This article explores the question, Under what circumstances is single-gender education consistent with applicable law? First, a brief review of the prevalence of existing public single-gender programs at the elementary and secondary level is provided. Next, the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution and Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, the two sources of federal legal authority guiding this issue, are discussed. Finally, the article analyzes the existing single-gender options to answer the question of the legality of the programs and presents issues of which those operating or considering the operation of single-gender programs should be mindful. |
