Several important events have occurred between 1929 and 1975 that have had a profound impact on the American public education system. The first major event was the Great Depression that began in 1929. The Depression began with the stock market crash of October that year. Funding for public schools is greatly reduced leading to lower salaries, early retrenchments, and the closing of several schools.
In 1939, David Wechsler developed the Wechsler-Bellevue Intelligence Scale. The scale calculates IQ scores based on how an individual’s scores deviate from the average score of other students who are of the same age as the individual. The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children is still used countrywide to identify students who are in need of special education.
In 1946, the 79th Congress passed the National School Lunch Act. It became apparent that the year-to-year appropriations by Congress were not an enough assurance that school lunch programs would continue into the future. Furthermore, the country had its share of experience when it came to the falling off Federal support for donating foods. There was a serious need to have a legislative basis for a national school lunch program that was permanent.
The Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka of May 1954 was a landmark case in the public school arena. The Supreme Court ruled that separate educational facilities were unequal by simply being separate. The ruling was the precedent for several cases that would follow and it paved the way for educational equality in the United States.
In 1963, Samuel Kirk coins the term ‘learning disability’ to refer to children with perceptual disorders. The following year, the Association for Children with learning Disabilities is formed to cater to the needs of children with learning difficulties and disorders. Currently, one-half of American students who are beneficiaries of special education have been diagnosed with learning difficulties.

Association for Children with Learning Disabilities-1963

Both events have had a profound impact on identifying and supporting children with learning disabilities.
The above events are significant to this day because of the impact they have had on understanding learning disabilities in children and adults. The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children is a critical tool used in the clinical assessment of children to diagnose attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder as well as any learning disabilities. The test is usually carried out in a process known as pattern analysis. The Association of Children with Learning Disabilities also uses the test when ...
This presentation was part of Embody's Safe Healthy Strong 2015 conference on sexuality education (www.ppwi.org/safehealthystrong). Embody is Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin's education and training programs. Learn more: www.ppwi.org/embody
DESCRIPTION
The issue of consent is often not addressed enough when providing sexuality education, even though it is a critical part of healthy sexual development and relationships. This workshop will explore why it’s important to address consent as part of comprehensive sexuality education. This will include developing a shared language to talk about consent in various situations. Participants will have the opportunity to practice talking about the topic of consent in sex-positive ways that include taking pleasure and various common scenarios into account. Participants will also gain knowledge and tools to make their own lessons, curricula, and workshops with clients more sex-positive.

Education and Socioeconomic Status
Socioeconomic status (SES) is often measured as a
combination of education, income and occupation. It is
commonly conceptualized as the social standing or
class of an individual or group. When viewed through
a social class lens, privilege, power, and control are
emphasized. Furthermore, an examination of SES as
a gradient or continuous variable reveals inequities in
access to and distribution of resources. SES is
relevant to all realms of behavioral and social science,
including research, practice, education and advocacy.
