Abstract

No. 2021-SC-0522
McNeary v. Council for Better Education, Inc.

Appeal from Franklin County Circuit Court Hon. Phillip Shepherd Civil Action No. 21-CI-00461

From the Purpose of Brief & Introduction

For these reasons, Kentucky has given more families the opportunity to have their children attend the school—public or private—that best suits their needs. That opportunity should not be denied based on the erroneous decision of the court below or because of equally erroneous concerns that educational choice is somehow a reform to be feared.

Comments

Amicus curiae EdChoice Kentucky is a coalition that supports public and private education in the Commonwealth and which includes representatives of schools from a variety of backgrounds, including both secular schools and faith-based schools in the Christian and Jewish traditions. EdChoice Kentucky promotes public understanding and acceptance of educational-choice policies to ensure that every child receives the best education available. EdChoice Kentucky therefore seeks to ensure that Kentucky’s Education Opportunity Account (EOA) Program is upheld in order to safeguard the tremendous opportunities it makes available to children and parents, especially those most in need.

Statement of Points and Authorities includes:

Nicole Stelle Garnett, Post-Accountability Accountability, 52 U. Mich. J. L. Reform 157 (2018).

Margaret F. Brinig & Nicole Stelle Garnett, Lost Classroom, Lost Community (2014).
