Court ruling on tuition subsidies won’t end parochial schools
The Supreme Court ruled 6 to 3 that states may not reimburse parents for private school tuition, but the United Catholic Conference says the decision won’t close Catholic schools. The court struck down nonteaching cost payments 8 to 1 with White dissenting. Justice Powell noted some aid may reach secular aims but direct sectarian funding is forbidden. The ruling follows decisions overturning New York and Pennsylvania schemes while New Jersey and Ohio subsidies were upheld.
