Just attended a cousins kids graduation night for school. These are grade 6's. What surprised me is the girls all looked about half a foot taller than the boys. It was so marked it looked like highschool kids next to little kids. I know girls grow faster at a certain age but checking my own school photos from the 80's at age 11 and 12 and most of us boys were still taller than the girls at that age,
Also of all the academic, music and merit awards handed out it was almost all girls on stage. Two boys vs 11 girls! From memory when I was at school you had male and female duxes, probably 50/50 or even 60/40 in the boys favor.
Not going full tin foil hat on this one, maybe it was just a very tall class of girls this year and maybe some schools dont encourage boys to perform? For the record the boys cleaned up in sports trophys. Still a strange break up though. Not having my own kids it was an eye opener
