Answer:
Performance of minority groups has increased
Explanation:
NCLB stands for No Child Left Behind. It was a program created by the Congress to help disadvantaged students get through their school.
This act mostly aimed for minority groups students. The reason being, minority students often came from lower income family. This tend to be associated with lesser attention from the parents, lack of proper nutrition, and social discrimination that they have to pass everyday. All of these contribute to their lower grade.
Ever since the NCLB was enacted, performance of students from minority groups has increased. This also reflected in their increasing average salary as they entered the job market.
Answer:
Explanation:
Answer:
vaccination was better because it provided the required immunity without having to infect the individual with small pox postulates as seen with inoculation
Explanation:
Vaccination was a better alternative to inoculation in the fight against smallpox because vaccination provided a person with a vaccine/immunity in their system which helped them fight/prevent the contraction of smallpox. while inoculation in the fight against smallpox involved the introduction of small pox postulates int the skin of an individual which still had an effect in building up the immunity against contracting small pox naturally. Inoculation was used before proper vaccination was discovered and it made a difference in history in the treatment of deadly diseases.

Explanation:
In 509, Clovis I became the first King of the Franks, unifying the allied Frankish tribes under one leader. In addition to conquering new territories, expanding the Frankish Kingdom to cover most of present-day France, Clovis also converted to Catholic Christianity (as opposed to Arian Christianity, which taught that Jesus was not fully God) after crediting Jesus Christ with a victory in a hard-fought battle. Today, France gets its name from the Franks and Catholicism remains the nation’s predominant religion, making Clovis a very important and influential figure in French history.

Over the following two centuries, the Frankish Kingdom grew powerful – powerful enough to halt the expansion of the Islamic Caliphate which had conquered the entirety of North Africa and Spain. In 732, Charles Martel commanded the victorious Frankish army in the decisive Battle of Tours, which halted the Caliphate’s expansion and cemented the Frankish Kingdom’s place as Western Europe’s preeminent power. In recognition of his victory, Charles was given the honorific nickname, “the Hammer.”
The Carolingian Dynasty
Charles Martel’s son, Pepin the Short, overthrew the Frankish king, usurping the throne with the Pope’s blessing, establishing the Carolingian Dynasty (The House of Charles). The close ties between the Franks and the Papacy would continue into the reign of Pepin’s son, Charles the Great, popularly remembered by his French name, Charlemagne. Charlemagne expanded the Frankish Kingdom through military conquests, including a campaign into Italy to assist the Pope against his enemies. In appreciation for Charlemagne’s support, the Pope crowned him “Emperor of the Romans” in 800. A thousand years later, Napoleon, the Emperor of France, would honor Charlemagne in the iconic series of paintings by Jacques-Louis David of Napoleon Crossing the Alps. Etched into the stones in the bottom left corner of the painting are Napoleon’s name, along with the names of Hannibal, who had crossed the Alps to attack Rome, and Charlemagne (written in Latin as KAROLVS MAGNVS), who had crossed the Alps to help the Pope and expand the Frankish Empire into Italy – just as Napoleon was, at the time, expanding the French Empire into Italy.
Map of the Frankish Kingdom from Clovis to Charlemagne
At the time of Charlemagne’s death, the Frankish Empire was the most powerful political entity in Europe, rivaling the Byzantine (or Eastern Roman) Empire and the Islamic Caliphate in power. However, it was not to last. Charlemagne’s empire was divided between his sons after his death and after a series of civil wars, the Frankish Empire was formally divided by the Treaty of Verdun in 843 and it would never be reunited.
The Western Europe of the High Middle Ages would not be governed as a centralized state, but as a patchwork quilt of feudal kingdoms where local lords held more authority than the kings to whom they swore allegiance. But the Franks were not without impact. They laid the foundation for the Kingdom of France, secured the Pope’s position as the leader of Christians in Western Europe, and led indirectly to the medieval institution of a Holy Roman Empire ruled by Germans.

Scholars compared hieroglyphics to cuneiform and found enough similarities to create an alphabet of the Egyptian writing system.
B.
Archaeologists unearthed a set of papyrus scrolls that had served as a dictionary in ancient Egypt.
C.
By comparing a message written in both hieroglyphics and Greek, scholars were able to translate the hieroglyphic symbols.
D.
Because early hieroglyphics were picture writing, scholars could decipher their meaning and then match them to more modern Egyptian writing.
I believe the answer is: C.By comparing a message written in both hieroglyphics and Greek, scholars were able to translate the hieroglyphic symbols.
Since the 6th century, the ancient greek and egyptian civilizations has already involved with one another through trades and travelling scholars. Because of this, cultural assimilation happened between the two, and many writings in greek actually depict a simialr writing that could be found in egyptian hieroglyphics.
The armed conflict broke out in America in 1775. Some delegates from the Second Continental Congress drafted a peace offer known as the Olive Branch Petition, but the clashes had already arisen when the document arrived in England. On July 4, 1776 (Independence Day of the United States), the colonies declared their independence from the Crown. The Declaration of Independence of the United States made several political charges against the king, the legislature and the people. Among other offenses directed at George III, the Declaration blames him: "He has abandoned our Government ... He has devastated our seas, devastated our coasts, burned our cities and destroyed our lives."
George III was outraged when he heard the opinions of the settlers. Although the war against the colonists was favorable to Great Britain in the beginning, the situation changed completely after the surrender of British lieutenant-general John Burgoyne in the battle of Saratoga (September 19 and October 17, 1777). In 1778, France signed a Treaty of Friendship with the new United States. Lord North asked to resign in favor of William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham, whom he considered most capable of facing the situation. George III, however, turned a deaf ear to such suggestions; suggesting that Lord Chatham was a minister subordinate to the administration of Lord North. Lord Chatham refused to cooperate, and died that same year. George III was then at war with France, and in 1779 he was also at war with Spain.
George III stubbornly tried to keep Britain at war against the rebels in America, despite the opinions of his own ministers. Granville Leveson-Gower, II Earl of Gower and Thomas Thynne, III Viscount Weymouth resigned before suffering the indignity of having to do with the war. Lord North informed George III that his opinion coincided with that of his resigning colleagues, but he remained in office.
In 1781, news of the capitulation of Charles Cornwallis, 1st Marquis Cornwallis, arrived in London; Tory Lord North resigned the following year (1782). George III finally admitted the defeat in North America and agreed to enter into peace negotiations. The Treaty of Paris and the associated Treaty of Versailles were ratified in 1783. The first treaty secured the recognition of the new United States by Great Britain. The second treaty stipulated that Britain would cede Florida to Spain and grant access to the waters of Newfoundland to France.
