Kentucky's Supreme Court rules charter schools can't get public funds, calling them not "common schools" under the state constitution.
The Kentucky Supreme Court has unanimously ruled that a 2022 law allowing public funding for charter schools is unconstitutional, stating such schools do not qualify as "common schools" under the state constitution.
The court found the law created a parallel education system outside traditional district oversight, violating the state’s requirement that public education funds be reserved for common schools.
Without a constitutional amendment or voter approval, the state cannot allocate public funds to charter schools, a decision that halts their expansion despite prior legal recognition.
The ruling reinforces the constitutional mandate for a thorough and efficient public education system and is a major setback for school choice advocates.
