Brown v Board of Education Topeka by Kaya Konopa https://padlet.com/kkonopa/ec7839t1ab0xg27i Research on the Brown v Board of Education Topeka en-us 2021-11-17 21:09:53 UTC 2021-11-18 04:26:04 UTC hello@padlet.com Important Legal Aspects In Ch 12 kkonopa https://padlet.com/kkonopa/ec7839t1ab0xg27i/wish/1897998184 There are many different legal aspects discussed in chapter 12 for new teachers.  One legal aspect that is important is that teachers must be certified.  According to the textbook, “These requirements may include a college degree with minimum credit hours in specific curricular areas; evidence of specific job experience…” (Metha and Webb 299). It makes sense that there should be requirements in order to be a teacher to ensure students are receiving a reliable and trusting education.   There are also citizenship and residency requirements to be a teacher.  This doesn’t mean that the individual has to be a citizen however, the state can make it a requirement if they deem it necessary.   One legal aspect that I wasn’t aware of was the one regarding residency.  However, “residency requirements have been upheld in many jurisdictions, and a number of states have statutory provisions prohibiting school districts from imposing such requirements” (Metha and Webb 299). Residency requirements are not required if it is unfair and unjust. There are also health and physical requirements for teachers that vary depending on the circumstances.  When a teacher is hired there is a contract they must follow. There are five parts to the employment contract. According to chapter 12, “There is offer and acceptance, legally competent parties, consideration, legal subject matter and agreement in the form required by law” (Metha and Webb 300).  There should be an acceptance in a time frame and it lies within the school board. Becoming a new teacher requires a lot to ensure teachers are prepared and accepted to teach students.

Board of Education of Topeka.  The case started because there was severe segregation in Virginia, South Carolina, Kansas, Delaware and Washington D.C.  According to the article, “African American students had been denied admittance to certain public schools based on laws allowing public education to be segregated by race” (Brown v Board of Education of Topeka 1).

Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson stood for Plessy v Ferguson however, he passed away and Earl Warren took his place.  Warren fought against school segregation and, “ on May 17, 1954, Warren wrote that “in the field of public education the doctrine of ‘separate but equal’ has no place,” as segregated schools are “inherently unequal.” (History.com editors 2).]]> 2021-11-17 21:22:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kkonopa/ec7839t1ab0xg27i/wish/1898009222 Court declaration kkonopa https://padlet.com/kkonopa/ec7839t1ab0xg27i/wish/1898010845 The court declared that racial segregation in schools violated the equal protection that the 14th Amendment represents.

He was told that his daughter could not attend the nearby white school and instead would have to enroll in an African American school far from her home” (Duigan 1)
