The Attorney General issues a ruling on which high schools within a state UN school corporation must be attended by law. It clarifies that a child under a certain age who has completed primary schooling is not required to attend a specific campus if the local corporation directs attendance elsewhere. The ruling also states that a trustee must transfer students to a different corporation when rosters change. In Vanderbare County case, Evanville high schools are affected and the opinion asserts that all children should be educated within the public system, with attendance required at the designated school until completion.
