"Surely girls’ academic prowess suggests it’s past time to stop appropriating taxpayer dollars for programs predicated on the idea that girls are disproportionately suffering in our public schools. That’s a conclusion the AAUW isn’t willing to reach. In this report, they reluctantly admit that girls aren’t doing so badly, but then quickly push to move the public debate “beyond gender” to focus on other factors, like race and family income, which are more closely tied to educational outcomes."
