Below is an example summary of this reading selection: Karen Stabiner argues that while single-sex schools are not the answer to all of the problems with the educational system in the United States, these schools can be a valuable tool. Minority and socioeconomically disadvantaged youth who have traditionally had the least access to such schools stand to benefit the most from them. Your summary will differ from this one in the way it is written, but it should include roughly the same information.
