How girls achieve  Cover Image Book Book

How girls achieve / Sally A. Nuamah.

Summary:

This bold and necessary book points out a simple and overlooked truth: most schools never had girls in mind to begin with. That is why the world needs what Sally Nuamah calls feminist schools, deliberately designed to provide girls with achievement-oriented identities. And she shows why doing so would help all students, regardless of their gender.-- Provided by publisher.
