Similar Academic Achievement

Generally, boys and girls of similar backgrounds have similar academic success. An American Assoc. of Univ. Women report says while girls have graduated from high school and college for years at a higher rate than boys, the largest disparities in educational achievement are not between genders, but between those of different races, ethnicities, and income levels. A greater proportion of men and women than ever before are graduating from high school and earning college degrees. “Perhaps the most compelling evidence against the existence of a boys’ crisis is that men continue to out-earn women in the workplace.” (NY Times 5/20/08)
