The U.S. Education Department is considering a change to its regulations forbidding public schools to offer single-sex classroom instruction.



If the change is approved after a 45-day public comment period, local school districts would be able to teach boys and girls separately, as long as comparable classes are available to both genders, according to department spokeswoman Susan Aspey."
