Public assistance for private schools debate heats Maryland
TE Obreiter argues against using Miller v Bennis as basis for public funds to private and religious schools. He cites Article VI Section 1 of the Maryland Constitution mandating a statewide system of free public schools funded by taxation, insisting private support is subordinate until public schooling is fully funded. He notes a textbook loan program funded from state redistribution and managed by the Maryland Department of Education, aimed at nonpublic school students, not taxpayers’ wallets, and explains per pupil textbook allocations and private school adjustments.
