On July 26, 1990, President George W. Bush said that this new federal civil rights law “presents us all with an historic opportunity. It signals the end to the unjustified segregation and exclusion of persons with disabilities from the mainstream of American life". He further stated that that this new law... “will likewise come to be a model for the choices and opportunities of future generations around the world”. What is this federal civil rights law that continues today to prohibit discrimination against people with disabilities in everyday activities?


Answer: THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA)

This week's trivia question: 


Special education in the United States can be traced back to the early 1800s in the U.S. In fact, the first school for children opened in 1817 in Hartford Connecticut. What was the name of the school?
