One of the themes in the last few chapters is that

• that girls are just as capable as boys are, we see that through Leslie and her race against the boys in chapter 3

• that girls in the story should be separated from the boys, as the teachers at Perkins Institute would separate genders

• it is about fairness and equality for all students and kids at Jess's school
