Well what is it? Girls make up 85% of the Honor Roll students but only 76% of the Honor Society members. If its anyone that should be complaining its the girls as they're getting shafted out of 9 percentage points of those seats.

I really doubt if the complaint had anything to do with Ritalin.

Doesn't anything strike you as odd that 79-85% of the best-performing students are female?

So, this district just happens to have a population where only 15% of boys are honor roll students?

Statistically this should never occur. There has never been a study that has shown such a dramatic difference in intelligence between men and women.

Something is wrong with this school district. There is no way that this would occur without a major problem in the way the district deals with its students.
