Have  any  of  you  noticed  the  crisis  in  men's  education  ?  fewer  men  are graduating  high  schools  and  colleges.  It's  a disturbing  trend  which  can  affect   tomorrow's  society  in a  very  negative  way  if  it  is  not  addressed.
Schools  routinely  discriminate  against  boys  and  don't  try  to  understand  boys'
educational  needs.

A recent experiment in single-gender classrooms has shown that students do perform better in them. Maybe this is the solution to
the current Crisis in Boys Education.

I  think  that  parents  everywhere  should  demand  that  the  Board  of  Education  starts   making  Boys  Education  a  priority  !

I don't think that single gender classrooms are necessarily the answer to this prolem. Public education has gotten away from things that count and are trying "educate" our children in the things of the world. The schools need to get back to those things that are important in education  ..... {rayer, Bible, Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic  ......  Leave the sexual promiscuity, abortion, "we are just animals", etc out of their agenda.

Amen PR, when I went to school things were so much different than they are now.
When my children went to school, prayer was already taken out of schools, and now that my grandchildren are in school things just seem to be falling apart.
Some of the reasons are because of the "politically correct" thing to do, other reasons are because it seems that most teachers nowadays don't take a genuine interest in the education of their students, some are there just because it's a job and that means a paycheck. Others are so limited by what they can do for fear of being fired or sued that they just seem to be apprehensive about many things.
If it seems like the educational system is falling apart it's because it is, along with all sense of morallity and honesty. This is all tied in with the end of days.
The Bible teaches a lot about the degeneration of mankind in the Gospels and in the books of Timothy as well.
