    Secondary School Movement- Most Important

    Students were able to learn life skills since they were not preparing for college. This prepared them for the work force. It also separated them to be with students their own age.

    Brown vs Board of Education- Most important

    This was significant because it outlawed segregated schools. Education is still impacted by this because we still have combined racial schools. I think it was important because it taught students that all people are important and deserve the same education.

    This helped those students who had less money to improve their education. I think it is important because they were able to improve their academics and get the help they needed and could not get without it.
