New Hampshire seeks to overturn 1990s school funding rulings, claiming courts shouldn’t dictate education finance.
The New Hampshire Attorney General’s office has asked the state Supreme Court to overturn the 1990s Claremont rulings, which established the state’s constitutional duty to ensure adequate and equitable school funding.
The appeal follows a 2023 ruling that current funding levels are insufficient and that reliance on local property taxes creates unconstitutional disparities.
The state argues school funding is a political matter, not a judicial one, and challenges the legal basis for the precedents.
The move comes amid legislative efforts to redefine an adequate education and reduce judicial oversight.
The Supreme Court, now with two justices appointed by Governor Kelly Ayotte, will decide whether to hear the appeal.
