Despite excelling academically, girls in NYC public schools report significantly lower satisfaction with their overall school experience, feeling more stressed and less supported by teachers.
The striking discrepancy between academic achievement and emotional well-being among girls, highlighted by stress levels and bullying reports, indicates a need to address their unique challenges.
'There's an unsaid pressure to perform well in school for girls,' said Camila Sosa, showing the difference in expectations and support for students based on gender.
Girls report being seven percentage points more likely to face harassment and bullying than boys, underlining a troubling aspect of their school experiences.
