Answer:
I would say the undeclared Anglo-Spanish war of (1585–1604). The Battle of Thermopylae (480 BC) , and The fall of Constantinople (1453) are the most significant and here's why :
Explanation:
In the Anglo-Spanish war , if the English lost, the Spanish would have likely landed an invasion force and succeeded in overthrowing Elizabeth I, thus obliterating the Anglican church. Rather than becoming the most formidable sea power in Europe and, thus, being able to project that sea power, England would have become a Spanish vassal, making it much easier for Spain to “rub out” Protestantism in the rest of Europe. Furthermore, the notion of “Great Britain” would be strangled in its bassinet.
In the Battle of Thermopylae had not the Spartans, Thespians, and Thebans held the pass and allowed the other Greek forces the ability to muster a defense against the invading Persians it is entirely likely that Alexander the Great would never have had Aristotle as his tutor, and never have spread Hellenization to the known world resulting in the rise of classical culture and the offshoots it created.
In the Fall of Constantinople ; essentially this battle played a huge role in the formation of the modern world. as places like the Americas would never be discovered and the world maybe would be a different place, if the battle of Constantinople didn't happen.

If Americans were aware of the repeal of England's Orders in Council, they may not have gone to war.
Who pays for the school education you are receiving? If your family owns a home, then you and your neighbors in the community (other homeowners) are paying for much of it through property taxes on your home. The majority of funds for public education--as well as guidelines and plans for local public education--are provided by the local areas where that education takes place. You have a local school district with a local school board.
Now, there are state funds provided too, and states set state-wide guidelines for education that all schools in the state must meet. And their are national guidelines and some funding programs too. But the majority of control of local schools still is in the hands of the local communities where that education takes place.
So support your local school board and cheer those who help guide funding and policy for your school!
