Justices OK tuition vouchers in landmark ruling
The Supreme Court ruled 5 to 4 that tuition vouchers are constitutional, enabling public funds to underwrite private or parochial schooling if parents have broad options. The decision upholds an inner city Cleveland program with up to 2250 per child, most participating schools church affiliated, and rejects claims of government endorsement a neutral private choice program.
