Schools Try Separating Boys From Girls

I found this article from the NY Times interesting:

Some grade schools around the country are separating girls and boys, placing them in separate classrooms. Read the comments of the teachers, administrators, students, and professionals. What do you think? Is this reinforcing gender stereotypes? Will it cause future gender cooperation issues in the workplace? Or is this a valid experiment/answer for low test scores in certain areas? Comment below.
