1 Gender Equity Survey Information

2 GEORGIA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION This report provides data regarding student participation and expenditures by gender for the school year. The data is self-reported by each school district and submitted to the Department via a portal. It is important to note that the participation rates contained in the report may be somewhat inflated due to the fact that each local school district reports participation by sport and not by student. Therefore, if a student participates in multiple sports, the student will be counted in the district s participation rate more than once. Title IX and Georgia s Equity in Sports Act Ensuring that Georgia s public school students, both boys and girls, enjoy equal access to athletic opportunities is an important priority. in athletics promotes many benefits, including improved physical and mental health and even improved academic performance. Research shows that participation in athletics can benefit both males and females, which reinforces the critical importance of ensuring gender equity in our schools athletic programs. For example, national studies indicate that girls who participate in sports can experience higher than average levels of self-esteem and graduate at significantly higher rates. 1 Similar to the requirements of Title IX, Georgia's Equity in Sports Act provides a series of wide-ranging factors that are to be considered in determining whether equal athletic opportunities are available. Under the Act, local school systems must carefully consider: "(1) Whether the selection of sports and levels of competition effectively accommodate the interests and abilities of members of both genders; (2) the provision of equipment and supplies; (3) scheduling of games and practice time; (4) travel allowances; (5) opportunity to receive coaching and academic tutoring; (6) assignment and compensation of coaches and tutors; (7) provision of locker rooms and practice and competitive facilities; (8) provision of medical and training facilities and services; and (9) publicity." 2 Thus, it is important that each school system examine the data contained in this report and other information to ensure that it is offering equal athletic opportunities that are designed to meet the interests of students from both genders.

3 While competitive cheerleading is not considered a sport under Title IX, the data provided in this report does include competitive cheerleading. The Department and the State Board of Education chose to include this data in order to provide a more accurate picture of the types of activities in which Georgia students choose to participate. The Department is pleased to present this annual report and looks forward to continuing to work with Georgia's school systems, including administrators, teachers, and parents, to ensure full compliance with the Equity in Sports Act. 1 2 See President s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports Report: Physical Activity & Sport in the Lives of Girls, Under the Direction of the Center for Research on Girls & Women in Sport, University of Minnesota, (Spring 1997).
