We say in the text that change, once instituted, must be constantly monitored. How might this apply to the Brown vs. Board of Education decision that overturned racial segregation in public schools or the Public Law 94.142 that guaranteed an appropriate education in the least restrictive setting to all children, regardless of their handicapping condition?

Question

The Answer is After the l954 Supreme Court decision, Brown vs. Board of Education overturned the 'separate but equal' doctrine that was the basis for segregation in the schools. It still took many years for schools to become integrated. Many citizen groups had to bring law suits against their towns to force the schools to comply with the law or to work out special devices, such as busing and redrawing district lines, to bring black and white children into the same schools. There are still many towns in this country in which citizen groups complain that the schools are not sufficiently integrated, and it is now almost fifty years since the decision. Many parent groups are now monitoring their school systems to make sure that the law for handicapped children is being fairly applied. Arguments still rage on whether handicapped children are being fully included or mainstreamed or whether they are simply segregated within the school building.
