Ruling disappoints officials over church school aid rulings
Parochial school officials nationwide express disappointment at Supreme Court rulings against state tuition and tax breaks for nonpublic schools. Civil rights groups praise the rulings as expected while officials push for a federal tax credit plan. The decisions struck down New York and Pennsylvania tuition plans and a New York tax deduction program, saying they violate the First Amendment. Leaders warn of impact on private education, with some proposing donations to churches or seeking federal aid as alternatives.
