Supreme Court Agrees to Hear Parochiaid Case
The Michigan Supreme Court this week agreed to hear a case involving an appropriation of tax dollars for private schools by the Michigan Legislature in 2016.
A coalition of education groups sued the state over a $2.5 million appropriation of tax dollars to reimburse private schools for certain expenses related to state health and safety mandates.
The Michigan constitution bans public resources for direct or indirect aid to maintain any private non-denomination or any nonpublic schools, the lawsuit contends.
