Abstract:

A Shakespeare Pageant was written by Sister Mary Agnes, who was born Mary Ives in a well-to-do Boston family in 1861, and died in 1939. Sister M. Agnes, as she was known, taught English from 1909 to 1928 at St Mary’s Academy (founded in 1874), an all-girls private Catholic high school in Winnipeg. The work, subtitled “A Dialogue for Commencement Day” and first published by St. Mary’s Academy in 1915, was located as part of the “Canadian Adaptations of Shakespeare” research project funded by the Premier’s Research Excellence Awards (PREA) in Ontario.

Abstract:

Background: High school athletes participating in cross-country sports are at increased risk of overuse injuries. Little is known in younger athletes including those participating in running during middle school regarding prevalence of injuries or related risk factors. The objective of this study was to assess the frequency of sports-related injuries in middle school cross-country runners. Methods: This was a retrospective online survey study of middle school cross-country runners. Middle school cross-country coaches from middle school teams in the Boston area sent letters of invitation via em

Abstract:

A 1-year study was undertaken investigating all sports injuries at a large high school. A total of 1283 student athletes participated in sports and suffered 280 injuries for an overall injury rate of 22%. The largest injury rate was in football (61%) followed by girls and boys gymnastics, wrestling, and boys basketball. Five sports had no injuries—boys' tennis, golf, boys' and girls' swimming, and girls' water polo. Severity of injury was measured by number of days lost per injury. Girls' track had the greatest number of days lost per injury (320) followed by girls' basketball, girls' cross co

Abstract:

This study tests the explanatory power of an integrated sociocultural and personality model in predicting bulimic symptomatology. Family, peer, and personality factors were assessed at three levels of analysis. The first level of the model measured the general functioning of the family system and friendship network. The second level assessed the extent to which the family system and friendship network were concerned with issues of weight and dieting, as well as the rate of eating disorders among members in these groups. The third level investigated the relationship of certain personality varia

This study examines values in the curriculum of one specific Catholic girls' high school. It reports on a school-based curriculum evaluation which took place at the school and explores how the methodology used imposed limitations on the explication of values. The implications of these limitations on the development of an appropriate curriculum for such a specific schoolbody are examined in the light of the writings of Paulo Freire and the outlines of an alternative method for curriculum evaluation is developed and applied. Major elements of this alternative model include an historical analysis

Abstract:

This study examines the gendered effects of early and sustained exposure to high-performing peers on female educational trajectories. Exploiting random allocation to classrooms within middle schools, we measure the effect of male and female high performers on girls' high school placement outcomes. We disentangle two channels through which peers of either sex can play a role: academic performance and school preferences. We also focus on the effects of peers along the distribution of baseline academic performance. Exposure to good peers of either sex reduces the degree to which high-achieving gi

Abstract:

Exposure to good peers of either sex during middle school reduces the probability that top-performing girls are placed in one of their preferred high schools. High-achieving boys have a detrimental effect on the selectiveness of the schools in which top female students are placed. These placement effects are driven by both lower admission scores and weakened preferences for selective and academic schools. Exposure to high-achieving girls improves the admission exam scores of poor-performing girls. This protective effect on scores translates into an average increase in the selectivity of the hi

A high proportion of out-of-school children across the world live in conflict-affected contexts.

Diversity in gender identity and sexual orientation challenges traditional institutions, social norms, and gendered stereotypes. This may translate into greater levels of conflict in society. Using data from 95 middle and high schools in Uruguay, we exploit plausibly exogenous variation in the share of LGBT students across classrooms and estimate its impact on the prevalence of psychological, physical, and sexual violence in the school. On average, we do not find support for a strong link between the share of LGBT students in the classroom and the prevalence of violence, yet we show that there
