There was a time in the United States when millions of children with disabilities weren't allowed to go to public school. But in 1971, seven kids and their families wanted to do something about it. They knew that every child had a right to an equal education, so they went to court to fight for that right. The case Mills v. Board of Education of the District of Columbia led to laws ensuring children with disabilities would receive a free, appropriate public education. Told in the voice of Janine Leffler, one of the millions of kids who went to school because of these laws, this book shares the true story of this landmark case.

Unfortunately, for some children, schools are more than just a place for learning, they are also a place of refuge and escape. It is important that children are aware that schools are a safe place where there are people that they can trust and go to if they need help. School is More than a Building, it is a place where people listen.In addition to celebrating schools and everything they do, School is More Than a Building is a great book to generate discussion about the many aspects of school life.

Download or read book Going to School in Black and White written by Cindy Waszak Geary and published by Light Messages Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-26 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The challenges of identity, assimilation, achievement, and politics that were faced by Lahoma and Cindy are the same challenges our youth are facing today." –Jaki Shelton Green, poet and NC Literary Hall of Fame inductee The school careers of two teenage girls who lived across town from each other—one black, one white—were altered by a court-ordered desegregation plan for Durham, NC in 1970. LaHoma and Cindy both found themselves at the same high school from different sides of a court-ordered racial “balancing act.” This plan thrust each of them involuntarily out of their comfort zones and into new racial landscapes. Their experiences, recounted in alternating first person narratives, are the embodiment of desegregation policies, situated in a particular time and place. Cindy and LaHoma’s intertwining coming of age stories are part of a bigger story about America, education and race—and about how the personal relates to the political. This dual memoir covers the two women’s life trajectories from early school days to future careers working in global public health, challenging gender biases, racial inequities, and health disparities. LaHoma and Cindy tell their stories aware of the country's return to de facto school segregation, achieved through the long-term dismantling of policies that initially informed their school assignments. As adults, they consider the influence of school desegregation on their current lives and the value of bringing all of us into conversation about what is lost or gained when children go to school in black and white.

Download or read book Lone Star School written by Richard W. Simunek and published by Tate Publishing & Enterprises. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Started as a scrapbook of memorabilia from a father's one-room school, Lone Star School blossomed into the telling of a how a mighty nation was built from sea to shining sea. Richard Simunek details the history of America as this country crept away from its Atlantic coast beginnings, stumbled over the Appalachians, flooded the old Northwest Territories, spilled into the Great Plains, and raced ever westward to the Pacific coast. Multiply the history of Lone Star School by 190, 000, the estimated number of one-room schools that once existed in America, and the resulting sum is a good chunk of America's history and how America came to be. Lone Star School's story of how America came to be is told from a never before presented perspective, the experiences of the one-room school student. Lone Star School is the only one-room school in America with the history of its students and families intact. Step into the shoes of previous generations of Americans through the stories of John Sipes of the Cheyenne Nation, the Hladik family from Czechoslovakia, and the Taggart family from Scotland. Each family story takes place in very different time periods and locations. Yet each narrative, along with the Hennessey Separate School story, shares the same themes, the search for land and freedom. Discover their continuing relevance in the current arrival of the Mexican-American immigrants in Hennessey.
