Important Steps in the Fight for Fairness in Education

1. Brown v. Board of Education (1954)

   • This court case said that separating students by race was wrong. It showed many unfairnesses in the education system, but many people still resisted this change.

2. Civil Rights Movement (1960s)

   • This movement worked hard for equal education for everyone. However, many problems in society still made this difficult.

3. Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (1975)

   • This law helped students with disabilities to be included in regular classrooms. But, sometimes it didn’t work well in real life.

4. Equity and Access Initiatives (1980s-present)

   • There have been many efforts to fix the unfair levels of education. Unfortunately, these plans often struggle because of money issues and rules.

Possible Solutions:

• Get the community involved more
• Change the rules and policies

These actions can help tackle the ongoing problems in making education fair for all.
