Oregon School Law Voided by U S Supreme Court Ruling
The Supreme Court ruled unanimously that Oregon’s law forcing children ages 8 to 16 to attend public school after 1926 violates parental liberty to direct their children’s upbringing. Justice McReynolds wrote that state interference must have a reasonable relation to public goals and cannot standardize children through public instruction alone. The decision allows parental choice while affirming state power to regulate school quality and civic education.
