PH@school: Supreme Court Cases
the Court considered a pennsylvania law that allowed the State superintendent ofschools to purchase certain educational services from parochial schools.
http://www.phschool.com/atschool/supreme_court_cases/lemon.html

Extractions: Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, the Supreme Court frequently considered cases involving the separation of church and state. As noted in Walz v. Tax Commission, 1970, the Court created precedents that at times appeared contradictory, but that aimed to uphold a "constitutional neutrality." As chief Justice Burger put it in his majority opinion in Walz, 1970, "[let] no religion be sponsored nor favored, none commanded, and none inhibited." Burger conceded that the evolution of the neutrality standard had not proceeded in "an absolutely straight line." Fearing too powerful a precedent, the Court avoided "rigidity" and tried instead to formulate "general principles on a case-by-base basis." With the case of Lemon v. Kurtzman, the Court would attempt to codify the principles on which these matters would be judged in the future.

http://www.voyagercharterschool.com/faq2.html

Extractions: Charter schools embody a new approach to public education. Since 1991, thirty-eight states have authorized the creation of charter schools in response to public demands for more effective and more accountable public schools. Many view charter schools as exciting and innovative initiatives that are changing and improving the educational landscape across America. Some argue that charter schools introduce a competitive dynamic into the public school system. Others prefer to think of charter schools as the research and development division of the public school system by providing a new stimulus and vehicle for innovation. There are those who see charter schools as a threat to the conventional public school system. The fact is charter schools are increasing in number. More than 2050 charter schools are already operating in the United States. In Pennsylvania, 77 charter schools have been approved since 1997, serving nearly 28,545 students. Q: What is a charter school?

Extractions: Add www.aclupa.org to your favorites B ill O f R ights L obby February 2001 For those of you who helped us fight Governor Ridge's various tuition voucher schemes, the new Bush Administration's focus on vouchers must seem like a rerun of a bad television show. In his first week in office, President Bush put forth his ideas for education reform. As part of that plan, the President proposes giving $1,500 vouchers to parents of students in certain circumstances. The vouchers could be used to pay some of the tuition charged by religious schools. The ACLU supports constitutionally sound measures for reforming our public schools. However, the ACLU opposes using public tax dollars for religious school tuition. We believe that vouchers violate the fundamental constitutional principle that our government may not fund or promote religious education. We also think that vouchers pose a major threat to the American system of public schools. The ACLU has consistently opposed tuition vouchers. Our opposition is based on the very language of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion . . . " Relying on that language, the United States Supreme Court has invalidated significant forms of government financial assistance to parochial elementary and secondary schools. The Court has recognized that the U.S. Constitution does not permit the direct or indirect funding of parochial schools. Tuition vouchers are merely the latest attempt to creatively divert public moneys to religious institutions.

What's New Minute on House Bill 592 The following minute from Chestnut Hill Monthly Meeting regarding House Bill 592 was discussed at Meeting for Business and again at a called meeting for business on Sunday, November 25th. The text was refined by a small committee and is now being circulated to members. Those present at the two meetings directed that copies of this minute shall be forwarded to Interim Meeting of PYM, leaders of the Education Committee of the Pennsylvania Senate, and to local newspapers. We urge Interim Meeting to direct the Clerk of PYM and the General Secretary of PYM to draft and distribute an appropriate objection to this legislation on behalf of all members of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting. We encourage individual members of our meeting and of PYM to write or call their state legislators urging them to delete the provisions requiring display of the flag and recital of the pledge of allegiance from this and any similar legislation that might come before the Pennsylvania Senate. Many thanks to all those whose presence at the two meetings, and comments then and later, helped to formulate this minute.

Extractions: Sunday, March 24, 2002 Pennsylvania's $30 million education tax credit program, which received little attention as it was being passed into law, may go down as the shot that no one heard. Since last year, the tax credit law crafted by a coalition of school choice activists has taken off with a bang, as business after business (more than 1,000 to date) stepped forward to embrace the notion of sending money directly to scholarship funds rather than the tax collector. Clive Belfield, a professor at the Teachers College of Columbia University, said even though education tax credits are only five years old, they have already spread to six states. Tax credit bills are pending in six more states and President Bush has proposed one at the federal level.

Extractions: Saturday, June 29, 2002 Whether Pennsylvania gives parents vouchers for private school tuition will hinge on who is elected governor in November, the chairman of the state House Education Committee said Friday. Voters will have a clear choice. Attorney General Mike Fisher, the Republican candidate, supports vouchers, while Democrat Ed Rendell, the former Philadelphia mayor, is opposed. "As governor, I think that (Fisher's) focus on the use of vouchers would be a tool to help children, particularly in failing school districts," such as Philadelphia, said Kent Gates, a spokesman for Fisher. On Thursday, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a Cleveland voucher program does not violate the constitutional separation of church and state. Local voucher supporters predicted the ruling will neutralize opposition to vouchers in Pennsylvania.

http://csmweb2.emcweb.com/durable/1997/09/29/feat/learning.3.html

Extractions: Monday September 29, 1997 Edition Tim Cornell, Special to The Christian Science Monitor PHILADELPHIA Earlier this month, Roman Catholic schools in Pennsylvania and New Jersey faced an unfamiliar challenge: striking teachers. Lay teachers hoisted picket signs for the first time, pushing for wages matching those of their public-school counterparts. FILLING IN: The Rev. Andrew Martin, principal of Camden Catholic High School in Cherry Hill, N.J., taught English class earlier this month after lay teachers at his and seven other schools in southern New Jersey went on strike. (AP) In Milwaukee and Detroit, parochial schools confronted a more familiar problem - bracing for news of which schools would close this fall. The situation contrasted sharply with that of wealthy suburbs such as Potomac, Md., where parents camped out for two days to gain their child a spot at the newly renovated and expanding School of Our Lady of Mercy. The nation's Catholic schools, long a beacon to the cities' poor and immigrant children, are going through seismic changes. As lay teachers around the country push for higher wages and middle-class families leave the cities, inner-city schools are struggling to maintain what is often considered a model for good discipline and a solid back-to-basics education. In the wealthy suburbs, meanwhile, parochial schools are overloaded with demand from families willing and able to pay full tuition.

http://www.theamericanenterprise.org/hotflash020826.htm

Extractions: The view from Pittsburgh With the U.S. Supreme Court putting the school voucher debate back on the front burner, TAE Online columnist Ralph Reiland interviewed Dr. Ronald T. Bowes, Assistant Superintendent for Public Policy and Development with the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh, last Wednesday. The interview follows: Reiland: On June 27, the Supreme Court, in a 5-4 vote, ruled the Cleveland voucher program for low-income parents to be constitutionally acceptable, i.e., not in violation of the First Amendment's religious Establishment Clause, even though the vast majority of the city's voucher recipients went to parochial schools. How does the Catholic school system in Pittsburgh plan to respond to that decision? Bowes: The Diocese of Pittsburgh, under Bishop Donald Wuerl's leadership and that of Reverend Kris D. Stubna, S.T.D., our Secretary for Education, has been a leader in this state for school choice. I am a board member of the REACH (Road to Education Achievement Through Choice) Alliance which is the state organization that advocates for school choice. The diocese will continue to push for school choice legislation as a matter of fairness, justice and good public policy.
