When you think about court cases that have changed education, you probably think of the big ones, like Brown v. Board of Education. But what about the others?

 

Recently, during a conversation at NCTE we spoke with Robert Kim about some of the lesser known, but just an impactful, Supreme Court cases that continue to shape our education system. Bob is an education policy expert and former civil rights lawyer, and most recently the author of Elevating Equity and Justice: 10 U.S. Supreme Court Cases Every Teacher Should Know.   

 

In this conversation, we focused on Bob's time in Obama administration, and his work around discipline disparity that leads to the school to prison pipeline.
