There's a showdown brewing among North Carolina's three branches of government. Caught in the cross-fire? More than 1.5 million public school children and billions of public dollars. Since the 1997 decision in Leandro vs. State, North Carolina public school children have had a recognized state constitutional right to a sound, basic education. But providing that education requires funding and resources from the State, which many argue has never been sufficient. Twenty-five years later, the issue is back before the NC Supreme Court who will have to decide how much authority the Court has in compelling the transfer of state funds to remedy the constitutional violation and fulfill the promise of a sound, basic education to NC's children. Join the Children Law Clinic, Duke Law's Guardian ad Litem program, and both local and national education law practitioners and scholars in discussing the recent NC Supreme Court hearing, the potential impacts of the upcoming decision, and how NC's fight for educational equity fits in the national school funding landscape.
