                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

SINGLE-SEX EDUCATION (§ 22.1-212.1:1)

Consistent with constitutional principles, a school board may establish a
single-sex school or class in the school division, if the school board makes
available to pupils substantially equal coeducational schools or classes.
Participation in such single-sex school or class shall not be required by the
school division, and the school board shall ensure that participation by pupils
in the single-sex school or class is voluntary. For the purposes of this
section, participation by a pupil in a single-sex school or class is voluntary
only if the school division also makes available to the pupil a substantially
equal coeducational school or class.
