It would appear so, based on magazine covers, news headlines, and popular books touting girls' academic success. Girls are said to outperform boys in high school exams, university entrance and graduation rates, and professional certification. As a result, many in Western society assume that girls no longer need support. But in spite of the messages of post-feminism and neoliberal individualism that tell girls they can have it all, the reality is far more complicated. Smart Girls investigates how academically successful girls deal with stress, the "supergirl" drive for perfection, race and class issues, and the sexism that is still present in schools. Describing girls' varied everyday experiences, including negotiations of traditional gender norms, Shauna Pomerantz and Rebecca Raby show how teachers, administrators, parents, and media commentators can help smart girls thrive while working toward straight As and a bright future. 606 $aGirls$xEducation 606 $aGirls$xConduct of life 615 0$aGirls$xEducation. 615 0$aGirls$xConduct of life. 676 $a371.822 686 $aSOC028000$aSOC032000$2bisacsh 700 $aPomerantz$b Shauna$01071361 702 $aRaby$b Rebecca 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910150255803321 996 $aSmart Girls$92566898 997 $aUNINA
