STEM and Girls in NAEP
From the Christian Science Monitor

Worth reading because it links STEM results, Title IX, and briefly single gender classes.
The paradox might be that is educators seriously consider gendered gaps,this will result in potential gendered solutions which gets us into differences. And, if we start talking about programs for just girls in STEM, even after school, then these groups are recognizing that something important and unique can happen in a single gender environment.
