Assuming that any given student must be either a boy or a girl (that is, no student can be neither a boy nor a girl), then 17 is sufficient. With sixteen students, you could have 8 boys and 8 girls, so there wouldn't be nine of either; adding the seventeenth student will push one or the other group to nine.
