The relevant paragraph and footnote regarding gender disparity:
? Every other year, the U.S. Department of Education conducts a survey of private school enrollment. As this report was being completed, I came across the most recent Federal survey, for the 2011-12 school year. It shows that male enrollment is greater than female enrollment throughout the privateschool sector. Because the gender gap issue is intriguing, I am planning a separate examination of this issue after the census report has been published.
