Becoming Coeducational: A Report from Deerfield.

Cary, Michael S.

Teachers College Record, v92 n3 p445-50 Spr 1991

Describes Deerfield Academy's recent process of changing from a single-sex to a coeducational school. Though some students and teachers resisted the change, most adapted well and enjoyed the new atmosphere. The school community believes that Deerfield should not settle for anything less than a full coeducational status. (SM)
