World view
In the 1980s and 1990s, boys still dominated American classrooms. They out-scored girls in math and science, they raised their hands more often, and they got more attention from teachers, data showed.
That's not the reality for today's students. More than half of teenagers say that boys and girls are now mostly equal in school. And significant shares say that girls have advantages over boys—that they get better grades, have more leadership roles, and speak up more in class, according to a Pew Research Center survey of teens nationwide published Thursday.
