Description of people affected by the bill: The people affected by this bill are disabled students. Many of these children need to be properly educated in order to succeed in life. Some of these kids are able to use education as a way to connect with the rest of the world. The bill ensures that all of the disabled kids will be getting a fair education in order to help them succeed. In a way this bill is like the method of "separate but equal" making sure that all of these challenged kids can thrive.

History: Throughout the history of the United States, disabled children have not been given the opportunity to learn on the same level as regular students. Through the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, these kids have been able to learn on an equal level. Before, the disabled children were often at a disadvantage because they were not able to perform many of the daily routines done in the classroom. Back before the original bill was made, everyone did not think disabled students could learn. With the addition of this bill the students are able to experience an education like all of the non-disabled students. When the original bill was made in 1965, the mind set behind it was to make all of the children equal. With this bill, a new level of equality of all citizens has been achieved.
