Supreme Court Rules on S A School Financing Case
The Supreme Court ruled 3 to 4 that Texas local property taxes to fund public schools are constitutional. Justice Powell wrote that the Edgewood district system is imperfect but rational and maintains local control, rejecting the claim of unequal protection. The Rodriguez case from San Antonio involved a Mexi can American area and highlighted disparities with Alamo Heights. The decision aligns with a similar California case and notes wealth as a non suspect class in this context.
